'I did everything I could to make that world come true. Not because it was Batman, it’s because it felt like another world. The brother says: 'After I saw the Dark Knight, that made me believe that something was possible to happen. Their movie reconstructions were elaborate - at one point, two of the brothers recreated Batman: Dark Knight Rises' costumes out of no more than cereal boxes and yoga mats.

'All exceedingly bright, they have no acquaintances outside of their family and have practically never left home,' the film's press release reads.

Ms Moselle said that boy's mother, Susanne Angulo, slowly opened up to her but described father, Oscar, was a 'rollercoaster'.

Ms Moselle said: 'It almost felt as if I had discovered a long lost tribe, except it was not from the edges of the world but from the streets of Manhattan.'
