A rainy morning on the Oregon coast. A sheriff’s deputy encounters a former classmate wandering the backroads, covered in blood. A shocking act of violence has shaken the quiet community of Spiral Creek and a wolf has been seen prowling the woods with some unusual companions in tow.

Ren Accord (Ethan Embry), a beleaguered divorced dad, believes something more than a wolf is responsible for the bloodshed. But each step closer to unraveling the mystery brings with it a growing dread that the entire town may soon be at risk. When the person he cares most about disappears, Ren fears he may already be too late.

Director Michael Patrick Jann, who cut his teeth as a troupe member of the legendary sketch comedy group THE STATE, has taken on many genres—directing episodes of Flight of the Conchords, The Good Doctor, The Spiderwick Chronicles, as well as the mockumentary feature Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999) and the horror western Organ Trail (2023).

BUFF is beyond honored to present the World Premiere of Jann’s latest and greatest, Alma and the Wolf, a film in which the comfortable safety net of genre conventions slowly frays and snaps, giving way to something horrifying lurking in the darkness beneath.
