WHAT’S IT ABOUT?
During a time when magic and superstition roams wild, Robyn Goodfellowe (Kneafsey) journeys to Ireland with her hunter father Bill (Bean) to eradicate the last known wolf pack.

As she accompanies her new friend on a quest to find her mother, Robyn uncovers secrets that draw her further into the magical world of the Wolfwalkers, while also at risk of turning into the very thing her father has been sent to destroy…
IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?
