English Summary/英文概要: Life overshadowed by an earthquake takes center stage in Wolves Are Not Afraid of Snow. Two rural young men part ways over a minor dispute. The end of their friendship on a sour note marks the beginning of an adventurous rivalry. On a very cold afternoon, they decide to walk to a remote spring to see whether it’s frozen over, a dangerous feat their friends don’t dare undertake.Bitter cold, darkness of the sky, the likelihood of falling prey to wolves and getting stranded in a snowstorm in the mountains, and the sadness such an adventure would bring to their lonely parents do absolutely nothing to stop them. Eventually they cover the distance and find the spring frozen, complete with mesmerizing, huge icicles reflecting the afternoon light.
Suddenly a loud bang sends the icicles tumbling, and Yousef is trapped under a mountain of ice. They save their lives with difficulty and return to their village just before sundown. But the village is no longer where it used to be, and cruelties of life begin to rear their ugly head.
