The Wolf Hour

THE WOLF HOUR delivers Hitchcockian tension in a densely layered world in the darkness of New York City, with a role that stretches the astonishing breadth of Academy Award® nominee Naomi Watts' emotional range as an actor.

Once a celebrated counterculture figure, June (Watts) now lives alone, having all but cut herself off from the outside world. Looking down from her fifth floor South Bronx apartment, she watches the escalating unrest in a city on a knife-edge during the notorious ‘Summer of Sam’.

June retreats further into isolation whilst her city becomes a pressure cooker, ready to explode in the incendiary 1977 blackout riots. Thinking herself safe from the violence in the streets, June’s weaknesses are exploited by an unseen tormentor, and her insular personal universe begins to unravel.
