A teenage girl in a country manor falls asleep while reading a magazine, and has a disturbing dream involving wolves prowling the woods below her bedroom window.
Rosaleen is a teenager, living in a country house in England with her family in the present days, and having a nightmare with wolves and werewolves in the Middle Ages. In her dream, her boring sister is dead, she lives with her father and her mother, but she spends lots of time with her lovely grandmother. Granny tells her many stories of werewolf and gives her the following advice: “Never stray from the path in the woods, never eat a windfall apple, and never trust a man whose eyebrows meet.” One day, Rosaleen, while going to visit her grandmother, meets a handsome man and bets who would arrive first at her granny’s house. Soon she finds who he is.
“Admirably attempting an adult approach to traditional fairy tale material, ‘The Company of Wolves’ nevertheless represents an uneasy marriage between old-fashioned storytelling and contemporary screen explicitness.” – Variety
“Like all the best fairy-tales, the film is purely sensual, irrational, fuelled by an immense joy in story-telling, and totally lucid.” – Time Out
“The most innovative, intelligent, and visually sumptuous horror film of recent years.” – TV Guide
