In response to widespread media silence, this documentary explores how and why Icelanders resisted the measures imposed by their government following the crisis of 2008, forcing the government to resign in 2009. Filmed in Reykjavik in October 2012, following arguably the most important National Referendum in Iceland's history, our aim was not only to provide a platform for Icelanders to tell the story of their nation - one that we haven't heard in the news but also to share some of their current socio-political ideas. We explore how the writing of the new Icelandic constitution was a truly inclusive and democratic process and how citizens globally can begin to create more inclusive and representative political processes in a world still in crisis. —Anonymous
