Nicolette Krebitz confirms her talent and daring in this provocative love story between a wolf and a woman. Introverted Ania has been living a pretty standard life when her eyes cross with those of a wolf while walking in a forest. From that moment on a transformation takes place leading her to transcend societal conventions and to follow her instincts. Take note: eroticism between a wolf and a woman…
“An outstanding film (…) a magnificently unsettling view on love and the world.” – Der Spiegel
“Krebitz’s film questions the behavioral standards we take as given with quiet daring and disquieting sangfroid. “-Variety
“A walk on the wild side in the most literal sense, Wild is a wayward, confrontational, anarchic, sexually outré modern fairy tale that balances on a razor-sharp edge between the genuinely provocative and the totally out-there.” – Hollywood Reporter
