About this event

๐Ÿบ We're getting together to talk about Mamoru Hosoda's Wolf Children.

A parent can work hard to make a child's life easier and still misunderstand the life that child wants. Protection becomes complicated when safety means fitting in, while growing up may mean choosing a path the parent cannot follow. The care that helps a child manage one stage of life might become a restriction at the next, even when the parent's intentions have not changed. How can someone recognise when their responsibility is to step back, especially if they cannot be sure things will turn out well?

The plan

Please watch Wolf Children beforehand There is no screening at the event.

  • What do parents owe children who cannot live ordinary lives?
  • What does the film suggest parents can pass on, and what must children discover for themselves?
  • How does the film let love and frustration exist together without cancelling either out?
