Director Ena Sendijarević chose Reunion Island as the location for her next film, Sweet Dreams, telling a story set in colonial Indonesia in 1900. It was originally supposed to be filmed in Indonesia, but the project was called into question by the health crisis. During the annual Éductour organized at the end of 2021 by the Agence Film Réunion for film producers, contacts made with Laurent Médéa's company Tiktak Production made it possible to reach an agreement with the co-producers of Sweet Dreams. In July and August, several Dutch film stars therefore filmed, discreetly, on several sites on the island. The Region allocated a grant of 300,000 euros, the amounts spent by the team during the two months of its presence on the island are estimated at 1,5 million euros.
