Synopsis

The Bear sets its story in nature at its wildest and succeeds in evoking our sympathy for a magnificent and often misunderstood animal. Tracing the first year in the life of an adorable brown bear cub, the films begins with the tragic death of his mother in an accident. The lonely cub attaches himself to a wounded adult male, who is initially aggressive - but soon he comes to accept the youngster and they face the trials of life in the wild together. The result is an eco-conscious classic.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
