Three abandoned sites of the American Dream, three monuments of a mighty nation’s pride. They help us to see that there is light and shadow in the American Dream. We visit the Safeguard Base, a former hi-tech protection shield against nuclear missiles, Pennhurst, a model facility for people with disabilities, and a working class vacation paradise that hides a deadly poison: Salton Sea. Everywhere we meet people who once believed in the American Dream. But we also discover that this dream is crumbling, just like the buildings from its golden era. These symbols of the USA of yore either find a new purpose or they are left to go to seed.
