Dreamland is the second feature film by award-winning director Ivan Sen (Beneath Clouds). The film is reminiscent of Sen's early short-film work, using an arresting visual style that tells as much of a story as the spoken narrative. The film is best described as an existential, extraterrestrial mood piece. It follows Dan Freeman (Dan Roberts), a career military man who experiences life anew searching the night sky at some of the most famous UFO-sighting areas in the American West.

With a masterful use of time-lapse, soundscapes, and cinematography, Sen creates a film that is truly cinematic. The pacing enables viewers to contemplate the ideas presented without being rushed, thus turning a 'thinking film' into a meditation on our existence in the universe.
