The Saddest Music in the World

Canada 2003 | 99 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

1933. Lady Helen Port-Huntly, a beer baroness and double amputee, chooses Winnipeg as the location for a world competition for the saddest music in the world. The representatives are a group of eccentric characters. An unconventional plot that could occur only in the seventh art – something between traditional melodrama and classic screwball comedy.
