Overview

Wildest of the Wild showcases the wild side of nature and what it takes to be a dedicated wildlife filmmaker. It was shot in the wilderness of British Columbia and Alberta in stunning HD. Wildlife filmmaker Leon Lorenz always travels alone, often carrying a 70 pound pack for his mountain trips in pursuit of rare and exciting animal behaviours. Wild actions of moose and mule deer in the rut were captures, but none as wild as a charging sow grizzly and her two year old cub. This grizzly bear attack captured the attention of news media worldwide. Join Leon on his four year filmmaking adventure and you will be drawn into a wilderness feeling upon watching this movie.

Documentary about the lifelong project of Troy Hurtubise, a man who has been obsessed with researching the Canadian grizzly bear up close, ever since surviving an early encounter with such a bear. The film documents Hurtubise's diligent work to improve his homemade "grizzly-proof" suit of armour, his efforts to test its resilience, and his forays into the Rockies to track down the grizzlies he dreams of meeting. The film manages to capture the humor of the project as well as its sincerity.

Szomszédok

The Székely panorama has always been bearish, but recently it has become even more bearish. Even though Robi and Uncle Géza don't know each other, they are united by the fact that they were both attacked by bears. The bear issue, so controversial in Romania, is an ongoing mystery because of the vested interests behind it. One thing we can see from afar is that the hunting associations and green organisations are far from in harmony, while the pistabachi sometimes have to fight the bear against their will. Behind the scenes, we fall.

Alaska's Giant Bears

Jan 17, 2023

In Canada and Alaska, the consequences of global warming are being keenly felt by brown bears - but in different ways by different populations. Their survival depends mainly on the quantity of wild salmon available in the region, as it is the fruit of their catch that enables the bears to accumulate fat reserves for the winter. While salmon populations off Canada's Pacific coast continue to decline year after year, in the immense Bristol Bay in western Alaska, as well as on Kodiak Island, they are increasing considerably. The water temperature in the North Pacific is now ideal for salmon development. From Canada to Alaska, the documentary follows different bear populations over a two-year period.
