Jaeden Martell, Sophie Giannamore, John Turturro, Eve HewsonMost teenage boys would kill for a few whiskers, but not Paul. At 13, he already has a full face of hair, and his peers treat him like a freak for it. So, too, does Martin Krejčí’s “,” although the movie argues that perhaps being a freak isn’t such a bad thing. You just have to learn to ignore what other people think and embrace your inner other.
The movie opens at a traveling carnival, whose exaggerated atmosphere sets the tone for what follows: It is Paul’s birthday, and he’s self-conscious about appearing in public, hiding his face behind a knit ski mask. Paul has no friends, and the instant Percy and the kids from school spot him, they begin their taunting, calling him names and cracking jokes about his missing mom .
Although modeled on a standard road-trip movie, Wolfboy’s journey is presented here as nothing short of an epic quest, in which each obstacle faced takes on the significance of a grand adventure. The movie spent nearly two years in post, turned down by multiple festivals before finally making its debut at Karlovy Vary , and one can imagine other cuts attempting any number of different approaches to the material — although Krejčí’s gift for creating texture and tone is undeniable.
