Director & Writer: Werner Herzog
A devastating and heartrending take on grizzly bear activists Timothy Treadwell and Amie Huguenard, who were killed in October of 2003 while living among grizzlies in Alaska.
The fact that they died is revealed pretty much early and from the interviews shown early, you don't feel much sympathy for Timothy as he was kind of asking for it. Werner Herzog goes on to film it as a character study of Timothy and by the end we see him as someone who is having an opposite worldview to nature when compared to Werner Herzog. Herzog is also considered as a mad director when it comes to taking risks but Timothy had a romantic view of nature and it is in stark contrast to his attitude towards human beings and civilization.
Rating: 4/5
