Night Mayor
Night Mayor is a 2009 short film by Guy Maddin, about a fictional inventor in Winnipeg who uses the Aurora Borealis to broadcast images of Canada from coast to coast in 1939, until the Canadian government shuts down his illegal project.
The National Film Board of Canada, which was founded in 1939, commissioned Maddin to create a film for its 70th anniversary. In making "Night Mayor", Maddin was inspired by his experience researching the NFB's film archives for his 2007 film, "My Winnipeg"
