We the Animals is a series of very interesting ideas. Some are powerful, some are provocative, and some don't string together as well as they should. But all ideas revolve around dealing with dysfunctional parents, and the lessons that some children take from living in that environment. The three boys, as well as the parents seem authentically real. In 16mm, this film seems more like a home movie than an indie narrative feature. When the imagination runs wild, We the Animals soars (sometimes quite literally).
