Seasonal Impressions presents a winter screening of Wolf Children (2012) with special guest Chad Hopson.
College student Hana falls in love with a “wolf man” and together they have two half-human, half-wolf children, Ame and Yuki. The young family’s happy but humble life comes to an abrupt end when the father is tragically killed during a hunt. After struggling to raise her children in the busy city, Hana boldly decides to move to a dilapidated house in the countryside, in hopes that her children may one day decide their own path to happiness – whether “human” or “wolf.”
The screening is preceded by the award-winning animated short, Unblending, by Michelle Ku. With special guest Chad Hopson, author and illustrator of The Fear Theory book series, who will talk about using creativity, play, and self-expression to help with seasonal affective disorder (SAD) amidst the winter season.
