Archangel

Director: Guy Maddin Run Time: 83 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 1990

Starring: Ari Cohen, David Falkenburg, Margaret Anne MacLeod, Michael Gottli, Michael O'Sullivan

A Canadian soldier lost in the backwoods of Russia finds himself chasing a memory in the form of a woman whose husband has forgotten he married. Working in a pastiche of early Hollywood modes, Guy Maddin embraces the wondrous, otherworldly peculiarity of an alien land — or Canada — to create a puzzling thing that can only be described as… We’ll leave that one to you. This stunning new 4K restoration from the original camera negative is a droll, early-career best from the eternally idiosyncratic filmmaker from the North.
