WOLF AND DOG, the debut feature-length narrative from Portuguese documentarian Claudia Varejão (Amor Fati, Ama-San), is a poetic coming-of-age drama set in the deeply religious and tradition-bound island of São Miguel in the Azores. The film follows Ana (Ana Cabral), a young girl whose close friendship with Luis (Ruben Pimenta)-a boy who freely embraces both dresses and pants-begins to challenge her perceptions of identity and the rigid world around them. When Ana's friend Cloe (Cristiana Branquinho) arrives from Canada, their journey into the local queer community opens new possibilities for self-discovery and freedom.

Against the backdrop of a working-class town where adults expect youth to conform-becoming farmers, fishermen, or mothers-the film explores the struggles of queer teenagers yearning to build their own community and redefine traditional notions of masculinity and femininity. Through a blend of gritty realism and striking visual poetry, WOLF AND DOG, winner of the GdA Director's Award at the Venice Film Festival, is a heartfelt and visually stunning film that transcends conventional portrayals of reality, reflecting a broader message about shifting cultural perceptions and embracing change.
