The dark days of the Depression set the stage for
surreal black comedy in this "intoxicating (Time)
musical melodrama from acclaimed director Guy
Maddin. When a legless beer baroness (Isabella
Rossellini) in Winnipeg announces a contest to find
the world's saddest tune, a pint of trouble brews
among a fractured family competing for the $25,000
prize. As the disturbing depths of the links between
each other, the baroness and an amnesiac
nymphomaniac are exposed, one thing becomes clear:It
will take more than a pool of alcohol to drown their
sorrows!
