In an epic story of breathtaking scale, “Bears” showcases a year in the life of a bear family as two impressionable young cubs are taught life’s most important lessons. The world outside is exciting — but risky — and as the season change, the brown bears must work hard to find food while staying safe from rival male bears and predators. “Bears” captures the fast-moving action and suspense of life in one of the planet’s last great wildernesses — Alaska!
Nominated for the Cinematography Award / United Kingdom, 78mins / Disneynature & Silverback Films
The screening will be preceded by the showing of "The Pray": an action adventure popcorn movie for wildlife films! Fly through the forest with flies, witness the cunning behaviour between a mantis and a hawk and experience a hunt like you’ve never seen before. It’s everything a fantasy movie would have except this time, it’s real.
The screenings will be followed by a Q&A with Alex Jones & Emma Blackwell (The Pray) who will be in conversation with Wildscreen's Nicola Reeves.
