Summary

"We The Animals" is one of the most visually inventive and breathtaking independent features of the year. All of this was accomplished under the watchful eye of writer/director Jeremiah Zagar. After spending years making documentaries and short films, Zagar's feature narrative debut premiered at the Sundance Film Festival to critical acclaim and is now opening in theaters in limited release on August 17th from The Orchard. Jeremiah was kind enough to give us a few minutes of his time to talk about the making of his new film. Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...
