Ripping up today's movie-making conventions, cult Canadian director Guy Maddin raids cinema's often forgotten past to conjure up deliriously eccentric offering The Saddest Music In The World. Shot entirely in a studio, it's the tale of a musical talent contest held in Winnipeg, the "world capital of sorrow", in the Great Depression of 1933. Double-amputee Lady Port-Huntley (Isabella Rossellini), the local beer magnate, has offered $25,000 to the competitor playing the saddest music in the world. Her former lover Chester (Mark McKinney), a struggling Broadway producer, returns home determined to win the prize.
