Dreams obviously are based on reality, considering that they are a mashup of the thoughts and events that are on your conscious and subconscious mind at the time, which are a result of your real experiences.
I think that sometimes they can bring attention to things that have been bothering you which perhaps your conscious mind was in denial about, but other times it seems that dreams can take an inconsequential event in your life and make it a big deal in your dream, and that doesn't mean it's important to you in your real life.
Imagine that there is a film student in your brain who is in school and is asked to make an interesting film. He has tons of footage to go through and he comes up with something, a bit cliche and weird, a bit disturbing...with some basis in reality, but also twisting reality around to make it interesting. Sometimes he has a real point to make, and other times he's just distorting facts to make an interesting story. I think there's a little film student like this in all of our brains.

I love this song though...it is so touching when they play it in Adaptation. It makes me cry
