THE OLD BEAR

When old bears go to the mountain for the last time, they aren't just digging their den - they're digging their graves.

Through the interweaving of family stories with the final days of bears in the Alaskan wilderness, "The Old Bear" film reflects on what nature can teach us about parenthood, aging, and death.
