Wild

About

A strange encounter with a wild wolf at the edge of Ania’s cold, mundane town sets off a deep-seated passion within her, shattering the drudgery of her dull days. Determined to hunt the untamed creature, she finds herself pulled to the natural world as a fearless lust for the wolf grows, eliciting a desire for her own sexuality and a disregard for social graces, repulsing yet attracting everyone around her. As the balance between the natural world and modern civilization begins to tip, so too do Ania's inhibitions, forcing her to question the glaring hypocrisies closing in on her.

Nicolette Krebitz's bold, anarchistic love story is a fairy tale for the ages. Along with Krebitz's sharp vision, Lilith Stangenberg's daring performance with her co-star, a wolf, takes us into the mind of a woman led by the deepest and wildest forces to break free of a world controlled by commodity, female dependence on male sexuality, and the mundane minutia of modern life. Visually poetic and sexually charged, Wild is a cinematic accomplishment of revolutionary fantasy.
