My Winnipeg

Winnipeg native Guy Maddin presents a hallucinatory autobiography -- part myth, part fabulation, and a tiny part historic truth -- infused with the unique sensibility of one of the world's most original filmmakers. Maddin's Winnipeg is a city with an epidemic of sleepwalkers, where a law prohibits throwing away old signs, and the homeless dwell on rooftops. And as this is very much a personal reverie, Maddin includes bizarre recreated moments from his childhood, in which actress Ann Savage plays his mother. "A delirious fever dream" -- McLean's.
