People in the background are hostile to wolves, cut down forests, and destroy the habitat of wolves. Due to the pressure of survival, wolves gradually clash with people around the forest. The conflict between humans and beasts is shown in the animation.
In the plot, the girl is forced by her father's authority and discipline, but still wants to resist this repression. The father's pressure comes from his own fear. He brings his fear to the girl and tells her to listen to her father's words to be safe. This is the same as the father has always obeyed the orders of the protector of the country on horseback. The father deceived himself that as long as he obeyed the orders of his superiors, he could live in peace until something changed later. That's why the girl obeyed the she-wolf without telling her friend that her mother was caught and locked in the castle, but went to persuade her friend to escape with the wolves. After that, the girl also deliberately let the group of children who went into a rage to keep the werewolf friends in cages. The girl was trying to save her friends in the same way as her father treated her, hoping that this inherent pattern would work, but it didn't work. no.
What can be seen in the film is a deep sense of sisterhood and resistance to patriarchy. Most of the time, the father not only did not listen to his daughter carefully, but also acted as a stumbling block when the daughter rescued the werewolf mother and daughter, and shot the werewolf mother with an arrow. The idea that the wolf is a cruel enemy in the father's mind is too stubborn, and when he sees his daughter with a werewolf, he does not accept that his daughter is part of the wolf pack, and tries to drag his daughter over. Conflicts are sometimes incomprehensible. When the soldiers who attacked the forest to kill the wolves saw the bright patterns carved in the forest caves, these soldiers were frightened and thought of the ancient legends. But the stubborn leader on the horse said it was witchcraft, and he did not believe in the existence of legends. Until finally, when he was forced by his father who turned into a wolf to a dead end on a cliff with nowhere to escape, he untied the belt with his own hands and fell off by himself. He will not admit his mistakes even in death, and will take the initiative to fight.
In the ending film, the power between women as the main force healed the werewolf mother, and the father who turned into a wolf and the wolves that could not become human under their control gathered their strength together by shouting. In the picture, the werewolf mother woke up and told the father who wanted to leave to let him stay. It was women who accepted men, and they finally merged with him.
