About this movie

The Wolf Hour is a tense Hitchcockian thriller with powerhouse performances led by Academy Award® nominee Naomi Watts. Once a celebrated counterculture figure, June (Watts) now lives alone, having all but cut herself off from the outside world. Looking down from her fifth floor South Bronx apartment, she watches the escalating unrest in a city on a knife-edge during the notorious 'Summer of Sam'. June retreats further into isolation whilst her city becomes a pressure cooker, ready to explode in the incendiary 1977 blackout riots. Thinking herself safe from the violence in the streets, June's weaknesses are exploited by an unseen tormentor, and her insular personal universe begins to unravel.
