We the Animals follows Manny, a shy, imaginative boy growing up in a close-knit but volatile family in upstate New York. As his brothers and a wild father pull him toward thrill and danger, Manny's private world—memory, dream, and tenderness—collides with the harsh realities of poverty and domestic chaos. Jeremiah Zagar's debut uses intimate camera work and lyrical visuals to sketch a raw coming-of-age tale where love, fear, and memory collide.
