Democracy is in crisis. A new generation of elected leaders is putting an end to what we know as freedom and democracy. Filmed over three years in five countries (Tunisia, India, Japan, Hong Kong and the US), Freedom for the Wolf is an investigation into this new regime. From students in Hong Kong to a Tunisian rapper and the world of Bollywood, this documentary shows how people all over the globe are fighting for the same thing, fighting against elected leaders who trample on human rights, minorities, and their political opponents.
