Among the wolves
Three things make Among the Wolves unique. Firstly, there is the director’s almost radically reduced narrative style, which follows a seemingly simple structure: take two men, a simple observation hut and the desire to document a pack of wolves in their habitat for weeks and months without disturbing the wildlife. Secondly, there is the extraordinary visual world that the two protagonists – one a photographer, the other a painter – create before our eyes: the breathtakingly beautiful camera images of the one and the sketches and drawings of the other, which turn every wolf, every animal into an individual full of character as we watch. And finally, a captivatingly unobtrusive sound concept transports us into the world of the wolf wilderness, making even the silence and loneliness out there audible and tangible. Immerse yourself in a cinematic synthesis of the arts with a profound effect.
