The Bear Story was a pretty good short film. However, I didn't really understand it at first. It starts with the father bear walking around his house and you see a spot on the bed next to him, so you assume that his wife is somewhere in the house. Then he walks into his son's room but the bed is perfectly made, which is strange. He is holding two dolls of a mother bear and a baby bear. The father bear then goes and eats breakfast by himself at the table. You see two chairs, one regular chair and a high chair for the son, but they're empty.
At this point, I was pretty confused. I kept asking questions. In all honesty, the questions that kept popping in my head were "Where is his wife?" and "Where is his on?" and "What happened to them? Are they dead?"
It then really confused me as to why he was standing on the corner ringing a bell with a box next to him. When the young bear comes over to watch it, you see the whole back story of this father bear's life. It explained how he was taken into the circus unwillingly and forced to leave his family. He then escapes after a little bit and heads back to his house only his family is no where to be found.
This short film was good, however somewhat depressing. It really just made me want to go hug all of my family members because I would never want to leave them.
