Desperate to make an escape to the Southern border, she’ll do whatever she has to in order to survive, but she doesn’t exactly seem like a stone cold criminal. There’s something more to this woman than meets the eye. Watch the trailer below.

Dreamland Trailer

Dreamlandfinds a young man (Finn ColeofPeaky Blinders) helping thefugitive bank robber Allison Wells (Margot Robbie) make a getaway from the law. It’s not because he’s keen on becoming a criminal, but rather because she’s offered to pay him $20,000 to get her to Mexico. But it’s not too long before he becomes rather enchanted with Allison, creating a romance that could be the end of both of them.

David Ehrlich atIndieWirepraisedDreamlandwhen it played at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2019, writing in his review:

There’s far more to “Dreamland” than the movie is able to wrangle over the course of its harried 98-minute runtime, and even when Allison and Eugene finally ride out to case the promised land it can feel like they’re driving in circles. Then again, it’s not like they’re looking for a real place. There’s no escaping that America is a land of burden, but Joris-Peyrafitte’s movie finds something tragic and beautiful in the story of two people who refuse to carry the weight they were given, no matter how much it costs to put it down.

There’s aBonnie and Clydevibe to this movie, feeling like it’s by way of  Terrence Malick. But it’s directorMiles Joris-Peyrafitte’s sophomore effort behind the camera, with cinematographerLyle Vincent(A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night) who have brought this gorgeously shot film together.

Dreamlandalso starsGarrett Hedlund(TRON Legacy),Travis Fimmel(Warcraft),Kerry Condon(Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri) andLola Kirke(American Made).

Dreamlandarrives in select theaters onNovember 13 2020, and will arrive on VOD startingNovember 17.
