This extraordinary documentary tells the story of six brothers virtually imprisoned by their parents in a run-down Manhattan apartment. The Angulo brothers’ main source of information about the outside world is the movies that their strict Peruvian father brings home. As a coping mechanism, the boys recreate scenes from their favourites, wearing makeshift costumes – donning charity shop suits to play characters from Reservoir Dogs, or making Batman masks out of cereal boxes. Moselle met them shortly after they’d first been allowed out, and they re-enacted their favourite films for her sympathetic camera. The paranoid parents thought they were protecting their children from a hostile world, but the Wolfpack, as they named themselves, now come across as shyly charming, if understandably estranged from reality – in the way, of course, that movies invariably are
After this London Premiere of The Wolfpack, we're delighted to be hosting a Q&A with director Crystal Moselle, and four of the Angulo brothers, Mukunda, Narayana, Govinda and Eddie.
