The Wolf House - Fairy Tale Reflections On Real-World Horror:
This week's video essay discusses the recent arthouse cult stop-motion animated film, The Wolf House! Joaquin Cociña's and Cristóbal León's inimitable artistic vision meshes dark fairy tales with the troubling history of Chile's Augusto Pinochet and the infamous Colonia Dignidad - translated into the "dignity colony," a commune of Nazi emigrants that committed cruelty against Pinochet's dissidents. A disturbing film from beginning to end, The Wolf House tells the harrowing tale of Maria, a young girl who escapes the Colonia Dignidad, and her attempts to build a family independent from the commune's cruel ruling. Deeply unsettling, The Wolf House is filled with political allegory and meaningful subtext that enhances its ability to disturb.
