Synopsis

Set over four days of unrelenting wind and rain in a remote village high up in the Nafpaktia Mountains in the west of Greece, the film follows the lives of two shepherd families struggling to live. The village, now forgotten and near deserted, has had its best days. Paxnis, the old white haired shepherd, who had foreseen the trouble this land would face has already given into despair. Giorgos unable to sell his goats and with debts mounting up, drinks to forget. Combining documentary and fiction with an all local cast 'To the Wolf ' is both the reality and an unsettling allegory for today's Greece

Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away
Konterr Brilliant and touching
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
kosmasp And I'm not talking about the geographical "Drama", but the actual "heartfelt" one. As a Greek I can understand where this is coming from and I know and have lived some of the conversations (or variations of them). That said, the doesn't really achieve what it sets out for. While its interesting concept is enchanting at first, it does get repetitive fairly quickly.At the Berlin International Film Festival the filmmakers had to go through fire during the Q&A. Some of it wasn't fair to them or the movie. The filmmaking situation in Greece isn't the best, considering the overall financial situation. One of the problems though is that there is a tendency to overdramatize things. Like sulking up to ones own sorrow. The movie captures that pretty good, but while its sometimes refreshing to see non-actors, they also fall into the trap of repeating themselves. While short and under the disguise of "documentary" (it still is a fictionalized story) and surely made with a lot passion and little money, this should not be seen as more than an exercise to hopefully some better work in the future
