"Award Winning Director Guy Maddin (The Heart of the World) continues in the freewheeling, genre-bending tradition that has made him one of Canada's most consistently intriguing and internationally respected artists with his latest work, My Winnipeg. My Winnipeg is a documentary (or docu-fantasia, as he describes it) about his hometown. Equal parts mystical rumination and personal history, city chronicle and deranged fantasy. My Winnipeg - which is framed as a goodbye letter - blends local myth with childhood trauma. A deliriously layered provocation, My Winnipeg is outrageous, informative and wilding entertaining."--Container.
