Why watch this film?

A premise of 'Wolf' is based on a real clinical condition, zoanthropy, but seen through the lenses of a fairy tale. The result is an interesting and sympathetic social allegory, albeit somewhat scattered and not very deep. Nevertheless, the acting work is impeccable (especially MacKay's), which keeps things interesting. A young man named Jacob (George MacKay) believes he is a wolf trapped in a human body, and lives as one. Admitted to a psychiatric institution, he meets a girl who thinks she is a wild cat (Lily-Rose Depp). The relationship turns into a passion and Jacob must decide if it is worth giving up his true self for love.
