This half-film, half-documentary is the surreal account of small town life gone seriously awry at the turn of the last century. In the 1890s, the small Wisconsin town of Black River Falls was subject to a bizarre series of disasters and strange, gruesome events, including a diphtheria epidemic, attacks by a serial arsonist, a crazed lunatic taking 26 people hostage in the local church and the murder of several newborn infants to name but a few. In the early 1970s, Michael Lesy discovered an almost unbelievable archive of old photographs from Black River Falls, prompting him to further research which culminated in his 1973 book 'Wisconsin Death Trip', on which this film is based.

Additional InformationBased on Michael Lesy's 1973 book of the same name, WISCONSIN DEATH TRIP is a strikingly original non-fiction film that tells the strange story of one cursed American community. In the late 1890s, the small rural town of Black River Falls, Wisconsin, suffered an incredibly bizarre crisis. Economically depressed and battling a diphtheria epidemic, in addition to relentlessly bleak weather conditions, the residents of Black River Falls began to collectively lose their minds. Through recreations, old photographs, and newspaper clippings culled from the era (read by Ian Holm), James Marsh's film shows just how bizarre a time in history this actually was.
