A la mort de son grand père, Alma, jeune pianiste de 20 ans, revient dans la maison de son enfance, perdue sur une île déserte du Canada. Là, tout bascule quand un louveteau et un lionceau en détresse surgissent dans sa vie. Elle choisit de les garder pour les sauver et l’improbable se produit : ils grandissent ensemble et s’aiment comme des frères. Mais leur monde idéal s’écroule lorsque leur secret est découvert... (StudioCanal)

Movies like Born Free (whether with a lion or a dog) don't need to have a complex plot, because sometimes you just need to enjoy the incredible shots of wild animals and nature. This is also the case with The Wolf and the Lion. The film doesn't have much to surprise story-wise, and at times it plays on the emotions in a blatantly sentimental way, but it's still nice to watch, offering a decent soundtrack alongside the beautiful footage of animals and nature. A cool family affair!

Having seen the very compelling movie Mia and the White Lion, I guess I had too many expectations since both films were directed by the same person. But what works great there, doesn't quite work here. Despite the fact that Gilles de Maistre once again filmed with real animals and without digital effects, he set most of the action in the beautiful Canadian wilderness. The soundtrack is also good. However, I see a major problem in the script, which seems patchy, and could definitely use more work. (55%)
