MY WINNIPEG with C. Rees

“What ultimately makes MY WINNIPEG so compulsively fascinating and an essential film that examines the cinematic slipstream of fact and fiction, is its elusive capacity for lingering in the mind as the half-remembered dream its imagery suggests, but more fundamentally, its insistence that lived experience is potentially less real than seeing it projected on a screen.” —Slant Guy Maddin channels the ghosts of silent cinema and the real and imagined specters of his hometown. An impressionistic, psychogeographical map through the “heart of the continent” and its director, this is a “documentary” by one of cinema’s greatest poets. Join us on Thursday, December 10, for a conversation with poet C. Rees about the film, poetic cinema, and how it influenced their debut collection, NOCTUARY. Presented in 35mm.
