Delicate yet emotionally raw, Wolf threads together a lifetime of archival material into a private journal of British avant-pop musician Patrick Wolf's life and music. Framed by a searching conversation with longtime friend Tilda Swinton, the film carries the candour of a confession as Wolf reflects on identity, sexuality, bullying, addiction and the personal upheavals that shaped both his music and his sense of self. Rather than simply recounting a remarkable life, the film flows through his emotional channels, revealing how the darkest moments shaped him. Approaching each chapter with clarity and grace, Wolf transcends the conventions of the musician biopic, exchanging mythmaking for vulnerability.
