Synopsis:
DREAMLAND tells the story of a gang who hire a hitman to cut off a finger from a heroin-addict trumpet maestro. It is an eccentric neo-noir which immerses the viewer into a diabolical underworld, where doppelgängers, vicious child-traffickers and a creepy vampire cross paths. Though offering a hypnotic descent into a violent and corrupt world ruled by madness, the evil chaos boiling at the surface, DREAMLAND is deftly tamed by its elegant cinematography and cool, haunting jazz score.
