Archangel

Streaming video - 1990

Literally a film like no other, this weird, wild and extraordinary photoplay is both melodrama and deadpan parody. With striking black and white cinematography and stylized set design, Guy Maddin tells a tale of obsessive love in the arctic Russian town of Archangel, where Bolsheviks, White Russians and German Huns converge during World War I. Official Selection at the **Toronto International Film Festival.** Winner of the Best Experimental Film Award by the **National Society of Film Critics.** *"...a fascinating fetishist delirium, where memories of remote war get recycled into something that's alternatively creepy and beautiful." - Jonathan Rosenbaum, **Chicago Reader***
