Devil's Island is a bitter sweet tale of Iceland in the fifties. Life is rough in Reykjavik's post-war slum of Camp Thule, where the abandoned US military barracks have been turned into makeshift homes. Struggling wives and their hard-working husbands try to make ends meet. The younger generation dreams of dollars, Rock'n'Roll and the American way of life. To celebrate or to drown their misery - they're never short of a good reason to booze. Devil's Island vividly depicts the everyday life of a wacky family, their neighbours and friends and shows how some of their dreams come true and others don't.
A group of icelandic actors and comedians satirize the events of 2001.
Ben is a outside in the dark a too large too heavy sailor bag on his shoulder, lonely and drunk. During a dream strange dream where he is taller, stronger, smarter, he meets an angel that gives him a flower. When he wakes up, he finds the flowers at his feet.
