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!.
