POINT WITH THIS FILM AND THE MESSAGE IS TRUTH."

Synopsis:
Filmed in what was once the economic center of the colonial Arctic 'Where Dreams Are Forgotten' deals with the prospects of the ever evolving infrastructure set against the stark reality for the local population. Told through noisy images the film transports the viewer to a neglected and often forgotten part of the world's largest island where the youngest generations are the ones who suffer the most in a post-colonial struggle of an entire society.

Synopsis (short): A small indigenous community struggling with post-colonial dreams of belonging to the developing Arctic while its citizens are battling the stark reality where the youngest generations are the ones who pay the highest price.
