DRAMA | FANTASY

Fred Haines writes and directs this adaptation of Hermann Hesse's celebrated novel. Harry Haller (Max von Sydow) is a reclusive intellectual tortured by his dual nature — half man, half wolf — who wanders through a nameless European city in a state of spiritual crisis. When he encounters the mysterious Hermine (Dominique Sanda) and her circle of unconventional friends, he is drawn into a world of jazz, sensuality, drugs and carnival fantasy, leading to a hallucinatory journey of self-discovery. A unique, visually experimental adaptation of one of the great novels of the 20th century.
