The Company of Wolves (1984)






As her mother and sister return home Rosaleen sleeps in her attic bedroom, dreaming of wolves. The film invites us to enter the magical world of Rosaleen's nightmares, where little girls should beware of men whose eyebrows meet in the middle, and some wolves are hairy on the inside.
