GRIZZLY MAN

For a darker parable of nature, attend the poignant, unsettling tale of Timothy Treadwell, who spent 13 summers among the wild bears of southern Alaska, until he and his girlfriend were mauled to pieces. With the aid of more than 90 hours of Treadwell's video footage, plus interviews with those who knew him, Herzog gets into the mind of a man who thought his nearness to the bears was a triumph of cross-species symbiosis, when in fact he was tempting the fate he eventually, tragically achieved.
