I didn't know (until today), but there's (for decades already, since 1980) a movie based on beautiful and sad “The Lathe of Heaven” by Ursula K. Le Guin (for my Polish readers, it was translated as „Jesteśmy snem” and had extremely awful pink cover). I'm a bit afraid how it turns out, but still have to watch.
Oh, and there's also 2002 adaptation, but reading short synopsis, it got rid of two important elements, aliens and “solution” of racial problem, so I doubt if this more modern version is worth watching.
Aand… it's available on The Internet Archive:
