Mark Hogancamp was beaten nearly to death outside of a bar in 2000. The attack left him with brain damage and an inability to remember most of his life. As a kind of therapy, Hogancamp created a 1/6 scale replica of a Belgian village in his backyard, filled it with doll versions of people in his life, and enacted an elaborate World War II narrative to help him process his trauma from the attack. It’s a fascinating story, and this documentary transforms it into a narrative about the redemptive power of art. Watch it instead of the fictionalized remake Welcome to Marwen, starring Steve Carrell; the reality is even weirder, and more moving.
