Droomdorp(2024)

Droomdorp is a Dutch documentary series following a group of idealistic residents as they attempt to build a sustainable community from scratch in Almere's Oosterwold district. Over four years, the filmmakers document their ambitious experiment: establishing a village centered on shared values like environmental stewardship, local food production, and close-knit community life. The series captures both the inspiring moments and the inevitable friction that arises when diverse people commit to living by collective principles. It's a candid portrait of modern communal living, exploring whether a dream village can survive the messy realities of daily cooperation, differing expectations, and the hard work required to maintain idealism in practice.
