The Wolf House [2018] (BLU)
Joaquín Cociña & Cristóbal León

Synopsis
Evoking Colonia Dignidad, an infamous torture colony operating during the Pinochet regime, The Wolf House is an animated film unlike any other, and an exquisitely handcrafted surrealist docu-horror-fairy tale about one of Chile's darkest periods. It begins with Mary, a young girl who hides in a mysterious house in southern Chile after escaping from a sect of German religious fanatics. Using stop-motion techniques and combining elements of various fables, photography, drawing, sculpture, and stage performance, Joaquín Cociña, and Cristóbal León have created a nightmarish shapeshifter of a film.
