Based on a Turkish proverb as to how Turks preferred their coffee, Black as Hell is the definitive Winnipeg film about slackers next to Greg Hanec’s Downtime. This buried treasure filmed in and around Osborne Village in the ‘90s is the story of philosopher king Sig and his friends Alan and Alice who spend their days drinking endless cups of coffee and Sig’s homemade beer.  Featuring a great soundtrack from legendary Winnipeg band Grand Theft Canoe’s Evan Kroeker and Lalo Schifrin All Stars.  Caelum Vatnsdal is an author, filmmaker and writer (author of They Came From Within: a History of Canadian Horror Cinema and Kino Delirium: The Films of Guy Maddin).
