My Winnipeg

My Winnipeg - Film Still - The Hollies Snowshoe Club visit the frozen horse heads My Winnipeg, a documentary by Guy Maddin, winds its way through the birthplace of personal mythologies, attempting to understand the nature of memory. Equal parts mystical rumination and personal history, city chronicle and deranged post-Freudian proletarian fantasy, My Winnipeg, framed as a goodbye letter, blends local myth with childhood trauma. Guy Maddin defines the true meaning of “home” and the shackles that bind him simply fall away.
