Within an Edenic future, a girl and her father live close to the property in the shadow of a lone mountain. They have a very few remnants of civilization: some books, a pane of glass, a couple of flint and steel, a comb. The daddy teaches the lady how to fish and hunt, the secrets of the times of year and the celebrities. He is planning her for an adulthood in tranquility with character, for they will be the last of humankind. However when the girl discovers herself alone within an unidentified landscape, it really is a bear that may lead her back through a vast wilderness that provides the best lessons of all, if she can only just learn to pay attention.

A cautionary story of human fragility, of love and loss, The Bear is a sensational tribute to the beauty of nature’s dominion.
