Synopsis for the Feature Length Animated Film Steppenwolf

Max Von Sydow and Dominique Sanda star in this ambitious adaptation of Nobel Prize-winning Herman Hesse's classic novel about the dual nature (the spiritual vs. the physical) of man and his eternal internal struggle to find peace within himself. This version employs animation, special effects, camera trickery, color synthesizers, superimpositions, and fast and slow motion to convey the complex inner life of the aging tortured writer who encounters the beautiful muse and alter ego on his journey of self.
