Contents/Summary

Summary
In November of 1995, with the lucky call of a number in a lottery, 350 people instantly became modern day pioneers. They were chosen to be the first residents of Celebration; the latest version of the American Dream built in the swamp of central Florida by the master of make-believe Walt Disney. Beautiful, pristine and crisp with pre-1940s architecture that takes you back in time to a safer, more comforting place where doors are never locked and good neighbors become good friends, Celebration is a real town with real people. Almost ten years later it is the home of 8000 residents. The film focuses on twelve of its residents who are in search of utopia. It was the Disney aspect that attracted them to Celebration. They all remember their first visit to Disney World, a magical and carefree place where dreams come true. The film shows what became of their dreams.
