When the Russians liberate a concentration camp in 1945, the sole survivors are a group of children. Taken to an abandoned building deep in the forest, the children are left with few adults and even fewer provisions. The shelter soon becomes a different sort of prison. German guard dogs from the abandoned camps, mad with hunger, encircle the woods around them. The guardians are killed by the pack and the children are again alone, fighting for their lives. WEREWOLF is beautifully crafted to sustain a grim fairytale atmosphere of isolation and dread. It is a horror story in the purest sense, one in which the monsters are not necessarily what you think. Some prowl on four legs, others on two. Some are born in the hearts and minds of children who witness terrors nobody should see. WEREWOLF is a gruesome but hopeful fable for our times, in which we are reminded that the war between savagery and civilization is an endless one. (In Polish and German with subtitles) —C.R.
