In a time of superstition and magic, when wolves are seen as demonic and nature an evil to be tamed, a young apprentice hunter comes to Ireland with her father to wipe out the last pack. But when she saves a wild native girl, their friendship leads her to discover the world of the Wolfwalkers and transform her into the very thing her father is tasked to destroy.
Editor's Verdict
"Wolfwalkers is a highly acclaimed fantasy/adventure film, but none of its core elements—setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution—are tied to the Christmas season. The detected element of 'Magic' is a genre element, not a Christmas element."
