Directed by Guy Maddin

Synopsis: Famed Winnipeg director Guy Maddin takes a stab at the last century's most famous monster, re-creating an original ballet by Mark Godden, with his own baroque silent-movie flavour. Maddin's cinematic style is rooted in melodrama and Soviet montage, among other characteristics of the silent-film era. As with his other works, he succeeds with bravura to turn his film-historical obsessions into contemporary art.
