Wolfwalkers (2020)

The folklore trilogy's finale is set in Kilkenny in 1650. English hunter Bill Goodfellowe is ordered by a Lord Protector modeled on Oliver Cromwell to clear the forest of wolves, and his daughter Robyn befriends Mebh, one of a tribe who become wolves at night, a story rooted in the legend of the werewolves of Ossory. The craft is the point: the town is drawn in thick, angular lines taken from 17th-century woodcuts, the forest in loose, sketchy pencil with the drawing marks left in, and the wolf's-eye chases through the trees are thrilling. Directed by Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart, it runs 103 minutes and is the studio's most rousing film, with Sean Bean as Bill. It won five Annie Awards and was Oscar-nominated.
