Trailer
A sheep farmer in the Alps who can’t really afford a sheep dog due to the small size of his herd. A behavioural scientist who sees the wolf as mankind’s social sister. A Lusatian wolf manager who playfully stills children’s fear of the animal, stoked by the media. A couple in the icy solitude of the American wilderness who daily feel the wolves’ presence. A shepherd in Bulgaria who coexists with them like his ancestors. A scientist who researches where our fear of wolves stems from and another who demands regulation. In contrast to the frequently heated public debate, Horat approaches the polarising topic in an almost contemplative manner, hears the people in front of the camera out and lets his eye wander. In this calm way he liberates the animals, humans and the debate from ideological ballast. In particular, he showcases the beauty of a creature without any high-tech effects, so ubiquitous these days, just like anybody could discover it. GL
