Theatrical Release:Jun 13, 2008 Limited

Synopsis: Cult director Guy Maddin (THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD) revisits his boyhood in Winnipeg, casting 1940s femme fatale Ann Savage in the role of his mother. The reality-bending doesn't end there.... Cult director Guy Maddin (THE SADDEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD) revisits his boyhood in Winnipeg, casting 1940s femme fatale Ann Savage in the role of his mother. The reality-bending doesn't end there. Creative interpretations of local lore, reenactments of childhood traumas, and a quasi-documentary style make MY WINNIPEG a surreal reinvention of childhood.
