I first learned of Guy Maddin from his 2003 drama "The Saddest Music in the World", about a contest to determine which country makes the most depressing music. I just watched his feature-length debut "Tales from the Gimli Hospital", accompanied by the short "Hospital Fragment".
The latter movie is a series of images based on the former. If these two are any indication, Maddin is into surreal stuff. It's hard to even describe, and I doubt that most people will even take an interest in it. People who are into surreal cinema will probably enjoy it, but I should warn you that even with its short length, it really tests your attention span.
