The Company of Wolves

THE COMPANY OF WOLVES takes us deep into a macabre fairytale, developing the rich and lurid dreams of an adolescent girl in a world where legends of wonder and fear are woven by the heroine’s grandmother…and become reality. It dovetails the sensual, grotesque and magical with the folklore of witches and wolves, but our heroine is determined to confront and dispel the myths which assail her. Neil Jordan’s second feature film as a director celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, and has lost one of its dreamlike creepiness.
