We’re joined by film directors Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart—creators of the new animated film “Wolfwalkers.” The film is the third installment in their Irish folklore trilogy that includes 2009’s “The Secret of Kells” and 2014’s “Song of the Sea.” Their latest follows the story of a young apprentice hunter named Robin as she bridges the world between an emerging 17th century colonized Ireland and the mysterious wolves said to be overrunning the lush woods that surround her family’s town of Kilkenny. The film is lush, thought-provoking and adventurous. Tomm and Ross chat with Jesse Thorn about their breathtaking film, the films that inspired them as children and their own relationships to Irish folklore. Plus, they’ll tell us what cartoon they consider the perfect stoner movie.
