About Wolflady

A veteran of the music industry, musician Oscar Holleman is astounded upon hearing the voice of 21-year old singer Sharon Kovacs: “The new Amy Winehouse”. 
 
Kovacs, nicknamed The Wolf Lady, approaches Holleman, a music producer thirty years her senior, at the helm of international success bands such as Within Temptation and Krezip, and makes a pact with him. Their musical exploration takes them to Cuba, London, Hamburg, Berlin and New York. We are witness to Sharon’s demons, her urge to create and her craving for recognition. The documentary covers two very hectic years. Together the two of them go through ups and downs, pills and drugs, fighting and loving, with cigarettes and mental setbacks, yet always with an ever-lasting ‘all or nothing’ mentality, laying the foundation for Sharon’s musical self-fulfilment.
