Rumours

Starring Cate Blanchett and a terrific ensemble cast, Guy Maddin’s latest is an entertainingly biting political satire.

At their annual G7 summit, the seven leaders of the world’s wealthiest liberal democracies get lost in the woods at night while attempting to draft a provisional statement. As they attempt to find their way out, they encounter a host of absurd dangers.

Premiering at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, RUMOURS is a comedic departure from Maddin’s signature nostalgic brand of filmmaking, but another one-of-a-kind vision from Canada’s master of surrealism.
