The Wolfpack
Cinema Eye Nominees: Audience picks for the best non-fiction feature films from the past year. Fall in love with the bright, articulate and cinephilic Angulo brothers in this Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winner. Locked away within their tiny Manhattan apartment for 14 years—once going a full year without being allowed to even step outside—the six brothers learned about history, culture and social norms from their father’s collection of 5,000 films. Watching, re-watching and meticulously recreating the breadth of cinema with stunning creativity (and the incredible home videos to prove it), the intensely charming siblings have a beyond encyclopedic knowledge of film and well beyond normal upbringing. Despite living in practical imprisonment by their father through most of their formative years, the brothers more than transgress any kind of tortured narrative; in fact, The Wolfpack has found immense popularity through the magnetic energy and enthusiasm for the world on display.
