Guy Madden, a Winnipegger and obscure film director, recently released a black and white docu-fantasy called " My Winnipeg ." Filled with half truths and half lies, he shows the history of Winnipeg and his attempt to escape the city by 'filming himself out the place.'
Amanda is a sassy Seattelite who, around the same time as I, moved to Winnipeg and we became friends. She wanted to make a video for her parents birthdays (5 days apart), as she was unable to make it back to Seattle this year to celebrate.
I have wanted to make a video about my life in Winnipeg since I first moved here and fell in love with the city, but I never had the drive, the purpose, to follow through. Amanda gave me that purpose. Since we travel in similar circles, I feel like this is my video of Winnipeg, and my friends, to all of you. While the tour of her apartment isn't my own house, and her hot boyfriend isn't mine either, all of the places we show are special to me and leave me in awe of this great city. Call yourself Mom or call yourself Dad and enjoy Amanda's My Winnipeg.
