Directed by Allan King • 1967 • Canada

For his enthralling first feature, Allan King took his cameras to a home for emotionally disturbed young people. Situated inside the facility like a fly on the wall, we witness the full spectrum of emotions displayed by twelve fascinating children and the caregivers trying to nurture and guide them. The stunning WARRENDALE won the Prix d'art et d'essai at Cannes and a special documentary award from the National Society of Film Critics.
