Following its European premiere earlier this month, we have a poster and trailer for the acclaimed documentary Freedom for the Wolf; check them out here, along with the official synopsis…
Democracy is in crisis. A new generation of elected leaders are dismantling freedom and democracy as we know it. A ground-breaking, powerful and original statement on the status of quo of global politics, FREEDOM FOR THE WOLF is the first film that provides the global context for understanding the Trump phenomenon.
Filmed over three years in five countries, from the young Umbrella movement students of HongKong, to a rapper in post-Arab Spring Tunisia and the viral comedians of Bollywood, we discover how people from every corner of the globe are fighting the same struggle. They are fighting against elected leaders who trample on human rights, minorities, and their political opponents.
Freedom for the Wolf is directed by Rupert Russell, with Camilla Hall and Patrick Hamm (Copwatch) producing and Nick Fraser (Man on Wire, Pussy Riot: A Punk Prayer, Notes on Blindness) and Stephen Robert Morse (Amanda Knox) executive producing.
