Iceland, On the Trail of Democracy: The Icelandic revolution, also known as the “Pots and Pans Revolution,” occurred in October 2008. It was rooted in the context of the subprime financial crisis when, in less than a month, the country’s three main banks declared bankruptcy.
Director Steve Vilhem set out to meet the main players of this revolution and the Icelandic citizens at the heart of this approach. From this protest emerged an unprecedented process: the drafting of a new Constitution based on participatory democracy.
