I just got the new Sigur Ros film Heima for Christmas. It is a film documenting the band traveling around their native Iceland giving free concerts. It is quite surreal and there are amazing shots of the Icelandic landscape interspersed with concert footage and interviews.
Iceland is a must-see if you ever travel abroad. I had the privilege of going there for a week in 2006 (one of 4 countries I have been to outside the US and Canada in my life). The landscape is very sparse and desolate, but is so beautiful and peaceful. Glaciers and mountains can always be seen in the distance, and the geysers, waterfalls, and coastline are extraordinary. Here are some pics of my visit:
