A staggeringly beautiful animated feature film from director/co-writer Mamoru Hosoda (Summer Wars). This epic cinematic achievement follows Hana (voice of Aoi Miyazaki), a woman who falls in love with a Wolf Man and gives birth to two half human, half wolf children. After the tragic death of her beloved, Hana seeks refuge in a rural town where she attempts to build a life for herself—and her children. Raising her little wild things leaves Hana bruised, scratched, exhausted and joyously overwhelmed as her pups grow stronger and wander further every day. This is a mother’s journey: teach your children to chase their dreams—and smile through the tears as they disappear into the world in search of who they will become. Winner of 19 international awards, including the Japanese Academy Award for Best Animation Film. (Fully subtitled)
