NUISANCE BEAR

For thousands of years, polar bears have migrated along the shores of Hudson Bay in northern Canada. Today, that ancient rhythm collides with a human world of tourism, surveillance, and control. Nuisance Bear immerses viewers in the experience of a polar bear forced to navigate tourists, wildlife officers, and hunters as climate change delays the freeze and pushes bears closer to human settlements. When a sacred predator is branded a “nuisance,” it becomes unclear who truly belongs in this shared landscape.<div><br></div><div><div>“Truly groundbreaking” – Werner Herzog</div><div><br></div><div>“An edge-of-your-seat thriller” – The Washington Post</div><div><br></div><div>“A grand fable, masterfully told” – POV Magazine</div><div><br></div><div>“One of the most visually striking films that you’ll see this year.” - RogerEbert.com</div><div><br></div><div>“Visually Breathtaking” – The Wrap</div></div><div><br></div><div><div>SCREENING: SUN 12/13 7PM (open caption); WED 12/16 4PM; THU 12/17 4PM; FRI 12/18 7PM</div><div><br></div><div>Tickets are now available online and at the box office beginning 30 minutes before showtime.</div><div><br></div><div>This show has ADA area seating or specifically held seats available.
