Unfolding through an intimate conversation with longtime friend Tilda Swinton, ‘WOLF’ is a
moving journey through the life and battles of musician Patrick Wolf.
Narrated through a deeply personal conversation with longtime friend Tilda Swinton, ‘WOLF’ traces the extraordinary life of British musician Patrick Wolf.
A defining artist of his generation, Patrick Wolf rose from the backdrop of early 2000s London. Shapeshifting between indie popstar and avant-garde artist, he was a maverick of his time. All until schoolday traumas, grief and his addiction collided, making music a painful memory.
The film is an exploration of resilience, the burden of being a singular LGBTQ+ voice and nature’s healing ability in finding that voice again. Interweaving present-day, animation and intimate material from over fifty hours of unseen archival footage, ‘WOLF’ is a journey of hope that shows no-one has to be defined by the shadows of their past.
