“The truth is relative.”

DramaComedyFantasy

The geographical dead center of North America and the beloved birthplace of Guy Maddin, Winnipeg, is the frosty and mysterious star of Maddin’s film. Fact, fantasy and memory are woven seamlessly together in this work, conjuring a city as delightful as it is fearsome.

VIBE

A dreamlike, black-and-white fever dream of a city. It's a deeply personal, yet universally resonant, exploration of memory and place, blending fact and fiction into a hauntingly beautiful, often bizarre, tapestry.
