Episode Overview

Although there is nothing to see yet on the bare polder land in Almere, initiators Sant and Solange have managed to get many residents enthusiastic about participating in the development of the new village. Martin can already see himself working in the enormous vegetable garden and Elly sees herself playing a role in how the group of residents can make joint decisions. Els would like to take her bees with her. Everyone dreams out loud about what their lives will be like in the future, but the first corona lockdown raises the question of whether their dreams can still become reality.

Series Overview

After the holidays, do you sometimes get the feeling that you would like to change course? For example, spend more time in nature, live more sustainably, grow your own food and care more about each other? A group of people from all corners of the Netherlands didn't think about it, but decided to do it. Their ideal village had to be built in the Oosterwold district of Almere. Documentary series 'Droomdorp' followed the group for four years and shows how the residents try to uphold their ideals and dreams together.
