Daydream NationThe film's director Michael Goldbach grew up in a small Canadian town near London, Ontario. Once there happened a very unusual event - a large fire at the plant for the production of tires, which could not have put out more than one month.

But strangeness's of his small town didn't end at that event. When Michael was in high school, in the county appeared the maniac Paul Bernardo, who along with his wife preyed on young girls. Not surprisingly that in his directorial debut Goldbach tells about tiny Canadian town, languishing from the industrial burning fire and introducing a curfew because of the appearance of a mysterious serial killer. It is very possible that the stories of his little town inspired Michael Goldbach to create the Daydream Nation.

The role of the main character, Caroline Wexler, plays Kat Dennings, who is known by a role in an episode of the HBO dramedy series Sex and the City. Kat also played in Raising Dad (2001), The Scream Team (2002) (TV), Everwood (2002), Without a Trace (2002) and ER (1994). Dennings made the move to the big screen with supporting roles in Raise Your Voice (2004), The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005) and Big Momma's House 2 (2006). She later achieved a level of fame with roles in The House Bunny (2008) and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008).

It is through her eyes we see a small Canadian town and her eyes still not clouded in contrast to the angle of view of other movie characters – she just came to that little town. Caroline tells not only about the life in the province, but also about many other issues. Sometimes she goes to demonstrative philosophy from the category of that the "spiritualized" girls drag on quotes to post them in social networks. But even then there is a big desire to continue listening her.
