Innovative director Spike Jonze collaborates with celebrated author Maurice Sendak to bring one of the most beloved children’s books to the big screen. Where the Wild Things Are is a classic story about childhood and the places we go to figure out the world we live in. The film tells the story of Max, an energetic and sensitive boy who feels misunderstood at home and escapes to an island where he meets mysterious and strange creatures whose emotions are as wild and unpredictable as their actions.
