The Wolfpack
Documentary
Locked away from society in an apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, the Angulo brothers learn about the outside world through the films that they watch. Nicknamed ‘The Wolfpack’, the brothers spend their childhood reenacting their favorite films using elaborate home-made props and costumes. Their world is shaken up when one of the brothers escapes and everything changes.
VIBE
A hauntingly intimate look at a family's isolated existence. It's a film that feels both dreamlike and suffocating, exploring the power of cinema to both imprison and liberate.
