Iceland | 1h 19m | Directed by Smari Gunn & Logi Sigursveinsson
Twenty-five years ago, Vidar Gylfason created a full, regulation- quality soccer pitch in the tiny Icelandic fishing village of Hellissandur (population: 369). It was his real-life “field of dreams.” But no team ever set foot on it. Now, Vidar’s son Kari is determined to bring soccer glory to Hellissandur and fulfill his father’s original dream. It won’t be easy, but with typical Icelandic pluck and humor, anything is possible!
