‘Misha and the Wolves’ Transcends Documentary Format To Tell A Remarkable Story Within A Story [Sundance Review]

Concerned with notions of legacy, trauma, memory, and deceit, the documentary by director Sam Hobkinson juggles multiple stories, people, and time periods with seeming ease, weaving a fascinating, multi-faceted tale in a tight 85 minutes.
