There is nothing quite like the world of Guy Maddin. Inspired by the magic and melodrama of films from the silent era, Maddin mixes animation, drama and documentary to create a unique filmic patchwork. In My Winnipeg the director embarks on a personal journey through memory and myth to explore the spell of his hometown. Endlessly inventive, witty and undeniably distinct, there’s no surprise that My Winnipeg has quickly gained a cult following.
