Synopsis

An extraordinary narrative and visual experience

When a girl raised by wolves is found in the woods, she is subjected to a series of tests and examinations in a laboratory. Two environmentalists eventually free her, seeing in her a potential savior of the planet. She must then learn to stand on her own, move forward, and make her own choices.

Driven by a striking performance of young Jessica Reynolds, The Wolf, the Fox & the Leopard unfolds as a fascinating philosophical tale with a sensory and rigorous mise-en-scène. A extraordinary narrative and visual experience.
