Outline

“It was a long winter. The bear woke up at midnight from hunger.” So begins the tale of a bear who, in the midst of hibernation, ate its entire family. This 21-minute experimental film, with soundtrack, was originally shot in 16 mm. Mixing black-and-white and color footage, it features slow-motion filming, 3D animation, and emulsion chemical processing.
