What happens

The Wolf House (Spanish: La casa lobo) is a 2018 Chilean adult animated horror film directed by Cristobal León & Joaquín Cociña (in their directorial debuts) and written by León, Cociña and Alejandra Moffat. Inspired by the actual case of Colonia Dignidad, The Wolf House is presented as a fairy-tale themed animated propaganda film produced by the leader of the sect in order to indoctrinate its followers. The film uses elements of avant-garde cinema, dark fantasy, psychological drama, surrealism, and supernatural horror. It had its world premiere at the 68th Berlin International Film Festival in the Forum section on February 22, 2018. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
