Loups=Garous
Virtual reality. Murder. Werewolves. And teen girls! In a future where nothing is as it seems, can old legends come true? In the near future, humans will communicate almost exclusively through monitors, making real interaction a rarefied and weak occurrence for those living in a near totalitarian society. In this new world of communication, children are only allowed to interact personally on school grounds. So when a serial killer starts slaughtering junior high children the communication routes go under further surveillance. And despite all the safeguards put in place to avoid physical interaction, the killer's latest victim turns out to have been in contact with three young girls: Tsuzki Mio, a certified prodigy; Matsuno Hatsuki, a quiet but opinionated classmate; and Kouno Ayumi, her best friend. And as the girls get caught up in trying to quell curiosity under such terrorist scrutiny, Hatsuki learns that there is much more than meets the eye of their monitored communications.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a dense dystopian tapestry, relying on the clash between sterile digital communication and the primal terror of an ancient curse. It explores the profound loneliness of a generation mediated by screens, using the werewolf myth as a potent metaphor for suppressed instincts and societal fragmentation.
What lingers after the credits is a chilling ambiguity about the nature of reality and connection. The narrative masterfully blends procedural thriller with psychological horror, leaving a residue of unease about the monsters we create through technology and isolation. — MovieFinder Editorial

Best Watched
Watch in a dark room with headphones to fully absorb the dissonant sound design and the oppressive, screen-dominated atmosphere.
