Wolfsbergen

Wolfsbergen

Τhe members of four generations of a complicated family are gathered in their hearthstone when they receive a farewell letter from pater familias, where he announces that he intends to commit suicide. A kaleidoscopic view on a microcosm that feeds on solitude and is redeemed by confrontation, through the spectral lens of a modern entomologist of human relations.
