The geographicaI dead center of North America and the beIoved birthpIace of Guy Maddin (Brand Upon the Brain), Winnipeg is the frosty and mysterious star of Maddin's "docu-fantasia." A work of memory and imagination, Maddin's film burrows into what the fiImmaker caIls "the heart of the heart" of the continent, conjuring a city as delightfuI as it is fearsome, popuIated by sleepwalkers and hockey aficionados. Take part in Winnipeg's annuaI epic scavenger hunt! Pay your respects to the racehorses forever frozen in the river! Help judge the yearly homoerotic GoIden Boy pageant! What is reaI and what is fantasy is left up to the viewer to sort out in Maddin's hypnotic, expertIy conceived paean to that wonderfuI and terrifying place known as My Hometown. |
