THE WOLFPACK

"Dysfunctional Family Values"

Watch:

What You Need To Know:

THE WOLFPACK is a documentary about the six Angulo brothers. The brothers, and their sister, were locked away from society by their parents, mainly their controlling fa-ther, in a poorly maintained apartment on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. The Angulo brothers learn about the mysterious outside world through the many movies in their per-sonal collection. Nicknamed “The Wolfpack,” the siblings spend their entire childhood reenacting their favorite movies using elaborate homemade props and costumes. Their stultifying world is interrupted when one brother rebelliously decides to escape and ex-plore the outside world.

THE WOLFPACK is fascinating, compelling and unique. It deftly tells the psychologi-cal, sociological and behavioral issues that the six brothers encounter. This helps the movie establish an emotional connection with viewers. However, THE WOLFPACK has a strong Romantic worldview, with plenty of strong foul language. The movie glorifies the triumph of the human will over adversity. Eventually, the fantasy of reenacting their favorite movies influences the brothers to do the unthinkable and escape to freedom. MOVIEGUIDE® advises extreme caution because of THE WOLFPACK’s Romantic worldview and strong foul language.
