Northern Canada, the dead of winter, and some scientists studying a wolf pack dynamics try to anesthetize and tag a wolf. The wolf awakes prematurely and attacks, but the trapped scientist bites first. This bitten wolf is infected with a disease called 'humanity'. As the moonlight rises, this wolf is changing. When wolves chase a naked and bloody Man into their camp, the scientists are shocked. This Stranger can't talk, is lost and is freezing, but from where? The first taste of danger enters the camp when the pack of wolves reappears, now fearless. Before this full moon sets, the humans will learn both the true nature of the Stranger and of their own "pack dynamics". More importantly, they will learn the true difference between wolves and humanity - the ability to lie.

The original synopsis is as follows: A wolf turns into a man after getting bitten by a woman during the full moon. The wolf-turned-human seeks shelter in a nearby remote housing camp, which happens to be headed by the woman who bit him and two rival males. Before the night is over the "humans" will learn the true nature of the strange woman and themselves. The fight for the female is on.
AJ Annila has been quoted saying: "I want to take this style of film and turn it on its head. What would happen if a human bit a wolf, and human blood entered a wolf? With Human I expect to do totally different kind of werewolf film, so don’t expect anything familiar to this sub-genre."
Director AJ Annila also worked on the Finnish horror art film Sauna.
Written by Doug Taylor (Splice).
Previously known as The Human Animal and simply Human.
No relation to the French film Humans (Humains).
