Send Me to the 'Lectric Chair

Directed by Guy Maddin, Isabella Rossellini

Synopsis: A diva (Isabella Rossellini) is tied to a wooden 'lectric chair. The power is slowly increased, sparks fly playfully, smoke curls upwards. The star becomes ecstatic. Her petite mort rĂªverie produces excitingly strange images - from objects of desire to melancholy flashbacks.
