About The Wolves
A group of five rookie insurance salespersons, driven to desperation by the impossibility of their work in Japan's failing postwar economy, form a plan to rob a cash delivery truck in order to provide for their families.
Directed by Kaneto Shindō, The Wolves leans on a strong ensemble — Nobuko Otowa, Sanae Takasugi, Taiji Tonoyama — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1955.
