The Wolves of Kromer is a 1998 gay-themed, allegorical fantasy film directed by Will Gould and based on a play of the same name by Charles Lambert.
In the small English village of Kromer, the local residents are angered by the wild parties held by the promiscuous 'wolves' who dwell on the edge of town. When a woman is killed by her servants, they manage to put the blame on the wolves, who soon find themselves hunted by an angry mob. Narrated by Boy George, the allegorical tale explores the origins and effects of homophobia.
The film debuted at the San Francisco International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival in 1998 but was released in theaters in December 2000.
