Plot Summary: Set in a
Winnipeg of the imagination, Hey, Happy! is a queer, contemporary fairy tale of handsome princes seeking each other amid a world of fairies, witches and trolls. Living in a bleak, industrial
landscape, Winnipeg residents are mutually bound up in a state of combined terror and ennui as they await the coming of an enormous flood, which may well obliterate all life. However, for most of
the town's citizens, the strain of worrying about the great destruction is just too great when other bigger concerns loom. For sultry DJ Sabu, who's preparing a huge rave on Garbage Hill, this
means completing his mission to sleep with 2,000 men. (He's one short of his goal.) His sights are set on handsome, geeky Happy, a "UFO-ologist" who receives transmissions on his boom
box from aliens who promise to manifest themselves on earth someday as his love children. Unluckily for Sabu, evil hairdresser Spanky, the self-proclaimed "biggest bitch in the world,"
emerges as a formidable rival-hissing hapless Happy into submission at his junkyard lair. Voodoo, alien intercession, and love are all brought to bear, ultimately fulfilling the dreams that our
heroes have relentlessly pursued.
