Becoming the wolf is the monster he becomes when "feeding" his addiction...the cat represents something the woman loves. While in wolf mode he destroyed the cat...hurting her...the muzzle represents sobriety...when she tries to sober him up he snaps at her...he realizing she left because of his problem wakes him up enough to try and sober himself up hence wearing the muzzle which brings her back to him...beautiful story and metaphors...loved it
Amazing storytelling.. For me, this could be the predicaments of being a couple, the forces that complicate relationships. One may have a conscious faults and is sorry after being so much faulty. He doesn't want the her to leave him and he cries like a wolf when he hurt her and she attempts to leave, but she's very forgiving bc just she loves him. The cat could be the options of life after him and jealousy, he ate the cat bc it's the girl's one big reason that could encourage her leave him for good. the neighbor looking through the door's hole could be the naysayers and social rejection of the situation.
so than im guessing that her fathers music career went down the drain and he became a drunk. and that the muzzle symbolized someone recommending she call the police and when she went to do it went to he hit her in one of his drunken bouts? idk just a vague guess but great animation and pretty decent story telling
Katie Redhead that was more over a byproduct of what he became, if it was eat like a pig he wouldn't exactly be a wolf. He was more over feeding his bad habits, quite aggressively
well.. I think it fell more into the realm of him being savage and brutal towards everything... and the whole eating thing was a metaphor of how he was slowly devouring the happiness out of his wife.
He was a lone wolf; no friends, no family, no relationships, only a daughter who he totally took for granted and ignored yet she idolized him. Good story.
Probably the fathers carreer went down, and the animalic appareance is a metaphor where a man, once lost his livelyhood and true passion, he turns into a state of decay and depression. The girl didn't manage to help him, and hoped he will turn one day back in the father she once had, until he... idk, turned drunk and she tried to call the police ( the muzzle) and he attacked her. Idk, it's just an idea.
I enjoy this sensual melancholic and powerful story about how an artist lives on the edge of sorrow and happiness. I also enjoy jazz music in the background.
a lot of people in the comments are suspecting addiction, like booze, but i thought it was mental illness. his deteriorating mental health meant he couldn't play anymore and became paranoid, "always on guard" as the TV says in the background. that muzzle might symbolise psyhiatric commitement. the daughter doesn't want to do it at first, but as his aggression gets worse, she goes for it and the father reacts negatively. when she runs away he decides to commit himself, but in the end the dayghter realises he's still the same "human" person underneath and choses to accept his illness and live with it: her removing the muzzle and sitting with him in wolf form
You cant help a person if they cant find the problem. Shes trying to help him but he won't accept it. So when he lashes out he finally realizes what he's become. And he doesn't want to live like it. So he tried to end his suffering along with hers. But when she comes to help he finally accepts that he has a problem that needs to be solved. She finally gets through to the man hidden behind the monster. And they both accept each others help along with their own.
the beast side of him is his addiction. drugs and alcohol. the muzzle was her trying to get him to a clean state of mind and body. the cat represents the love he is destroying. great story.
well since she got bit, I assume she was going to turn into a werewolf herself...so one the bright side they can both be werewolves on the dark side..they can rampage together o.O
Apparently he is a human long enough and frequent enough to stop his daughter from running away from him. Toxic relationships can be between any two family members... not necessarily between two lovers.😧
i’ve seen this at the age of 11 and i remember how i was not expecting the cat to be eaten also i didn’t seem to care for him before even before he ate the cat coming back here in 2024 at the age of 17 i now feel bad for him i now understand what happen to him including what he going to do at 5:54 and i got over the cat being eaten as well
QuiteDaPlayer_ I feel like the cat represents something important about his daughter. Either A) he stole something to sell to feed his habit or B) he did something awful to her. Either way, she snapped and took a step to get her father some of the help he needs and he lashed out against her for it, and after driving her away he realized his mistake and took the steps himself.
Yeah me too, that is so weird. I mean she doesn't even look 15 either, she looked more like 25. Is that an inside joke like when in movies teenager are played by adults? I guess it doesn't really matter if it was her father, husband or brother, the message would be the same either way. I mean kinda makes me whish they didn't classified their relationship. Seriously because everything works I guess it would just work if everyone sees them as what they see them.
As i understood... the story tells about musician who went down and lost the control of himself And his daughter suffers from this, and the muzzle represents "the only way to make him quiet" but as we can see at the end, even the "beast cage" wouldn't help and she takes it out, realizing he is safe and sorry, he just can't control himself sometimes This is what "untamed" tells to the viewer
"Sally, an introverted 15 year old girl, lives and bears with her wolf-father in the city of New York where Wolf is slipping more and more into his world of wilderness. Sally still remembers the man he used to be; a brilliant and talented jazz trumpeter. Where did her father go? And can he still be found somewhere within the Wolf?" It's nice to know the story and all but where's the mother?
i think this is saying that if maybe that this is her and her boyfriend they loved each other alot but then he started drinking and they started arguing alot soon she didnt see him as the man she once loved he started drinking and getting more out of hand and he would destroy everything she loved because of his anger and when she tried to help with his anger it just gotta out of more hand and he ended up hitting her she tried running away but she was in love with him and forgave him and soon he started to get help with his anger she started seeing him for the man she once loved again
I like one of the hidden lessons in this; You can only do so much to help someone, but they have to want to help themselves.
Absolutely true Catilena1890👍
Catilena1890 right
Faking A👍
If the lesson is good they can’t help seeing it

Robot
I had no idea what this story was about until you explained it, thank you. :3
awww ya beat me to it.
oh ok ty for helping me understand. I usually understand these but for this one, i wasn't sure.
you explained it very well
I came for the werewolf, but stayed for the story.
👍
I thought it was a bear
Same
That is deep
Me too!!!
I love watching animated shorts sometimes, and this is one of the best ones so far

You're not you when you're hungry.... She should have got him a snickers. :L
Dude. Just no. XD
you just ruined the moment XD
Aki U
LOLLLOL
LoL! Dude! That's horrible! XD LoL!
lol

according to the description, you are right on it pretty much
I hate to sound dumb but the story to me went: Just because your friend eats like a pig and is moody doesn't mean you should try and restrain them.
Katie Redhead that was more over a byproduct of what he became, if it was eat like a pig he wouldn't exactly be a wolf. He was more over feeding his bad habits, quite aggressively
Katie Redhead i do understand the restraining though
well.. I think it fell more into the realm of him being savage and brutal towards everything... and the whole eating thing was a metaphor of how he was slowly devouring the happiness out of his wife.
Why does it seem like all these animated short films are so damn depressing. I mean, this sort of had a ok ending, but damn.
He was a lone wolf; no friends, no family, no relationships, only a daughter who he totally took for granted and ignored yet she idolized him. Good story.
I love how a 8minute short online can tell more of a story then an 1hr and 30min movie can.
I came to the comments looking for theories. Fantastic short. I loved it.

+Marsupilami Thanks for the theory, I'm not too great with piecing together information to come up with a complete theory, so thank you again.
he is wolverine's bro howls... The lesser known x-man who has wife issues and a failed trumpet career
omg!! I was nearly in tears!! that werewolf was SOOO cute!!
No he was gross
Ikr I love werewolves
I know its cute but he is not a werewolf they just make it like that :-(
MsSuicidePANDA Awwwww you guys like wolves too.
MsSuicidePANDA oh my cute and terrifying
I just came for the werewolf.
Fandom Girl LMAO SAME DUDE!!! 😂
Sorry but he's not a werewolf. The artist just sued a wolf to visualize the animal he was inside.
Same XD. I saw the wolf, and I was like: OMG A WOLF! I LOVE WOLVES MORE THAN HUMANS!!!1!!1
Eh, Same Thing With Me. e.e I LOVE WOLVES...
Do you want to kill your friends? Sry, but that’s the instincts of a werewolf.
That damned onion-cutting ninjas got me again...
bobiboulonibibbityaboobyilulontibnabiddlebapboobidybooboobeepbiddyboopbillundaryububibbybapboo! Ikr? :,(
XD
bobiboulon had to read this twice to understand you dude XD but I get whatcha mean
This is a tale about the agonies of addiction in whatever form.
she feels like she is trapped with a monster and the muzzle is her being able to stop it and 4 the cat is her happiness but he eats away at it
Nero Batman THATS actually an amazing visual of this!!!
So it was like a metaphor.?
This short is a bittersweet must-watch for Father's Day
Who ever was playing that
Trumpet....
Wow!
Girl: *Puts muzzle of wolf
Claws: “It’s showtime”
I thought he was gonna jump but, then he fell in tears im sorry but, the end brought me to tears.
same 😥😔😣😖😭
I enjoy this sensual melancholic and powerful story about how an artist lives on the edge of sorrow and happiness.
I also enjoy jazz music in the background.
I feel bad for this guy he is cursed to be a werewolf, but at least someone loves him for who he is.
quite upset cause he ATE THE CAT!
Same ;^;
I know! I used to have a Siamese cat! D:
Ide run away forever if my dad was a were wolf and eating birds and cats
WELL WHAT IS HE GOING TO EAT HE IS A WOLF WHAT DO YOU WANT HIM TO EAT DOG FOOD HOW RUDE 😬😬😬😈😈😈👎
+XxlollpopGirlxX. I will love it because you can here better and the sense of smell I love wolfs
Not gonna lie i began to tear up once he was standing on the edge and as the story from there went on.
This is deeper than anything on this planet

This is so beautiful. I can relate to it and it made me cry
This, is THE most saddest thing I have watched ever yet.
I was literally screaming NOT THE CAT NOT, NOT THE CAT! and my mum came in looking at me like I was completely insane lol
Ava Lambert hi
@@piece8617 come on... in some places is normal to eat a cat....
I just knew something was going to happen to that cat 😔
Same
IKR
it's just too beautiful
Nice profile picture there
thanks brother :)
It's faith, we've long lost brothers
Darkserpent0572 Can i be a brother
MinishcapMike Mike Profile pic m8
if my dad was a wolf i would still love him no matter what happends and i would protect him :)
I can respect that
I liked it a lot. This guy who made the video is of course.

they're actually not a couple, they're a father and a daughter. but I wouldn't have guessed that if I hadn't read the description.
I love the concept of monsters having feelings
Man 5 years and it's still good :)
Alot of symbolism in this animation
great symbolism, fantastic production values, well done.
He’s the Big Bad Wolf and she’s Little Red Riding Hood!❤ Love it!❤
I am glad I came back to this short film
That was tge most beautiful animation i have ever seen
6:11 Always gave me a breeze: “Sad...”
Really nicely made. And so true...
At least this lone wolf found someone.
It's better than beauty and the Beast
This is a Father and Daughter relationship tho...
Dante Robles same
HOW CAN HE PLAY THAT FAST ON A TRUMPET 🎺??!! I CANT DO THAT
watching it many times and it still so amazing O.O
That
Was
ADORABLE!!!
😭😭😭😭😭🐺🐺🐺
Cute werewolf symbolism. ;)
he is potraied as a wolf because he is becoming more and more wild, it's a metaphor i think
this channel is a real treasure !
well since she got bit, I assume she was going to turn into a werewolf herself...so one the bright side they can both be werewolves on the dark side..they can rampage together o.O
I don't think he actually was a werewolf... He was just a metaphor.
I think it was a metaphor for alcoholism and child abuse but k
When he was eating the cat he shouldve turned around and said "want some?"
they should make that a movie
The best video I've seen today
I watched this 28 time love it
Apparently he is a human long enough and frequent enough to stop his daughter from running away from him.
Toxic relationships can be between any two family members... not necessarily between two lovers.😧
Its was really sad when he killed the cat😢😭
This made me cry 😢
That was awesome
Never forget to cry...
I'm crying...NO I MEAN IM SNIFFING ONIONS I DONT KNOW WHAT YOU HEARD PFFT NOTHING HEH
Maddie Atchley wtf....
Maddie Atchley Sniffing onions?
Wie so nur die süße katze😥😥😭😭😭😿😿😿🐈
GENAU!!!!!😿😿😿😿😿😭😭😭😭😭
i’ve seen this at the age of 11 and i remember how i was not expecting the cat to be eaten also i didn’t seem to care for him before even before he ate the cat
coming back here in 2024 at the age of 17
i now feel bad for him i now understand what happen to him including what he going to do at 5:54
and i got over the cat being eaten as well
IM UPSET!!
It's an analogy for alcoholism
But what the hell is the cat meant to be??
Drunk people don't eat cats!! XD
QuiteDaPlayer_ I feel like the cat represents something important about his daughter. Either A) he stole something to sell to feed his habit or B) he did something awful to her. Either way, she snapped and took a step to get her father some of the help he needs and he lashed out against her for it, and after driving her away he realized his mistake and took the steps himself.
may be drugs?
The cat was the girl's happiness. And the wolf, - her father, was eating away at it.
As soon as I saw the cat I knew what was going to happen
Que triste😭😢😢😭...Pobre homem!!!😢😭😭😢
Tambem ajo
*Inhale* I hate stories like this because they make me love them.
So, it's a metaphor for the dangers of free form jazz and heavy breathing?
Hlalakar XD
Hey what do u have against jazz
FUCK YOU SAY BOUT MAH JAZZ?!
Too beautiful for words.
It's so good!
Almost made cry lol
Made me I meant
Aww so heart warming
why does everyone think the wolf is her father? boyfriend/husband came to my mind
the description says its her father
ah. yeah, didn't read the discription. should have though haha. sorry
The wolf Is her dad
WTF, I also thought it was her husband... He looks the same age as her.
Yeah me too, that is so weird. I mean she doesn't even look 15 either, she looked more like 25. Is that an inside joke like when in movies teenager are played by adults? I guess it doesn't really matter if it was her father, husband or brother, the message would be the same either way. I mean kinda makes me whish they didn't classified their relationship.

Wow this needs more veiws + likes.
nice addition to the lore
This is the message of spirit wolf. The werewolf was forgiven by a pure human that has forgiven the werewolf《♡》NOTE BY THE LOST SOULS
aww they still love each other. ^^
As i understood... the story tells about musician who went down and lost the control of himself
And his daughter suffers from this, and the muzzle represents "the only way to make him quiet" but as we can see at the end, even the "beast cage" wouldn't help and she takes it out, realizing he is safe and sorry, he just can't control himself sometimes
This is what "untamed" tells to the viewer
Sorry for the bad english, feel free to correct me
This brings joy to me
That poor cat is dead🐈💀
OMG NO THE CAT 😭😭😭
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

It's nice to know the story and all but where's the mother?
I think eating cats means the father ruined the relationship between the girl and her friends in someway...
Idk why but I cried at this
i think this is saying that if maybe that this is her and her boyfriend they loved each other alot but then he started drinking and they started arguing alot soon she didnt see him as the man she once loved he started drinking and getting more out of hand and he would destroy everything she loved because of his anger and when she tried to help with his anger it just gotta out of more hand and he ended up hitting her she tried running away but she was in love with him and forgave him and soon he started to get help with his anger she started seeing him for the man she once loved again
she*
DarkAvenger 3365 it's her dad XD
Farther not boyfriend
giving me The Wolf Among Us vibes...
made me cry
This is too cute
the ending is cute
This is my favorite film by u
Violence at home, so romantic.
This animating is spot on! ;D
He was hangry af
2020, still in my mind, its so beautiful and depressing 🥺
sooooo good its a good video I love it nice job 👍👌✌👊👏👐
awesome! Just awesome! Thank you !
Amazing video, but I must ask about the music!!! Was all this composed just for this short, or are these real songs? I need more!!!!
