THE WOLF HOUSE (2018) w/ creepy stop-motion pre-show
June 7 : 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm
“A mind-blowing haunted house… Directors Joaquín Cociña and Cristóbal León mingle classic European fairytales in a potpourri of magical notes laden in eeriness… In both concept and execution, The Wolf House will render you awestruck.” – Carlos Aguilar, TheWrap
One of the most singular and unsettling animated films ever made, THE WOLF HOUSE is inspired by the real-life case of Colonia Dignidad, a remote Chilean Nazi sect founded after WWII. Painstakingly animated by Joaquín Cociña and Cristóbal León, this contemporary cult animation classic is a twisted fairy tale, combining stop-motion and traditional animation in a dark kaleidoscopic fantasia, photographed to appear as one continuous shot. Maria, a young woman, finds refuge in a house in the south of Chile after escaping from a sect of German religious fanatics. Two pigs, the only occupants of the house, welcome her inside. The ever-shifting universe of the house reacts to Maria’s feelings as the animals transform slowly into humans and the house becomes a nightmarish world unto itself.
Come out for a creepy stop-motion pre-show, beginning at 6:30 pm.
Each month, DRAWN VISIONS presents an outré gem from the wild, wonderful world of animation. Focusing on the strange, the underseen, and the unclassifiable, this series proves cartoons aren’t just for kids, they’re for total freaks too!
