Frank and the Wondercat 2015

Directed by Tony Massil and Pablo Alvarez Mesa · Documentary · 86 min

Frank Furko, an 80-year-old eccentric in the Pittsburgh suburbs, takes stock of his life and tries to reconcile his forty years working on the family farm with his domineering father, the end of his 20 year marriage, and his role as a celebrity derived from Pudgie Wudgie, his 20-pound performing house-cat. Supported by Frank's twenty years of VHS video archives, the film explores memory, loss, friendship and mortality.
