Synopsis

This is a fictional account of real historical incidents in 18th century france when a wolf ( or wolves) killed well over 100 peasants in wild areas of the Massif Centrale. Despite the mobilisation of massive resources the 'beast' continued to kill leading to risks of destabilisation in parts of the 'ancien regime'. No definitive explanation of these events ever emerged and in France this has led to a fascination with the whole episode which continues to this day.
