Written by Kirk Lynn

Directed by Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux

Bobert, a lost and desperate runaway, falls in with a group of young, wild squatters, occupying foreclosed homes and shoplifting beer at the local Speedy Stop. Bobert wants to make one more trip back home to retrieve his little brother, Timmy, but he’s not sure if his new friends are really all that safe. An older girl, Angel, has taken Bobert under her wing, but some of other squatters are getting more violent and claiming to be werewolves, as a local cop closes in on the pack of runaways, trying to put an end to their anarchy.

Toronto based filmmaker Jeremy Schaulin-Rioux grew up playing drums in crappy punk bands and making ground-zero youth culture documentaries on underground streetball (The Notic Mixtapes), rebel skateboard crews (Film Fatties) and illegal cliff-jumpers (Cliff Notes), all while studying narrative storytelling as an award-winning television and feature film editor.

His narrative music video work (especially in collaboration with his friends in the punk band PUP) has garnered multiple Video of the Year awards, MMVA / UKMVA and Juno nominations, a spot on Rolling Stone’s top 5 videos of the year, as well as in the Cannes Lions New Directors’ Showcase.

Rules For Werewolves will be his debut feature film.
