Time to unleash your Stone Age brain and run with the wolves in FOLKTALES! From Oscar-nominated directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady comes a heartwarming tale that offers a breath of fresh air in our screen-saturated modern world.
Exhausted by loneliness, social anxiety, and all the crushing barrage of pressures felt by their generation, three teenagers leave the comforts of home to enroll in a traditional “folk high school” in the wilds of northernmost Norway. Dropped in the arctic wilderness for one year, Hege, Romain, and Bjørn Tore must rely only on themselves and a pack of loyal sled dogs as they take the daunting step from childhood to adulthood. Freed from technology, social media, and the noise of modern life, this brave trio learns to face themselves for the first time, and experience an unexpected transformation.
FOLKTALES, presented by Loki Films, Impact Partners, Fifth Season, and Topic Studios, will be released in U.S. theaters beginning July 25. We’ve been collaborating with Magnolia Pictures, the film’s North American distributor, on outreach and marketing in support of its theatrical release.
