Djöflaeyjan (Devil's Island) is a 1996 film directed by Friðrik Þór Friðriksson. It is a dark comedy filmed in the Keflavik area of South west Iceland. The story depicts a group of otherwise homeless families living in barracks abandoned by the US Air Force after the Second World War. Themes that permeate the film are an ambivalence towards America and Americans, poverty and the accompanying social stigma, superstition and the spirit world, and a destructive family dynamic. The sound track is a mix of American pop, some performed in Icelandic and a haunting score by Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson.
