A man carrying pork up a mountain meets wolves, and what unfolds is not survival but transformation, told through paper folded into living things. The stop-motion origami gives every frame a tactile weight that CGI could never earn, each crease and shadow suggesting a world where the boundary between human and animal was always thinner than we thought. This is a classical ghost story rendered in a medium that makes the uncanny feel handmade, vulnerable, inevitable. Most people will never see it. They should.

An old man heads to the market with pork to sell, but on his way across the mountain he is set upon by wolves. The film adapts the tale of the same name from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, a collection of classical Chinese stories. Its animation is stop motion made with origami figures, giving the old story a folded paper look.
