Documentary from acclaimed director Werner Herzog which explores
the life and death of amateur grizzly bear expert and wildlife
preservationist Timothy Treadwell. Treadwell lived unarmed among
the bears for 13 summers and filmed his adventures in the wild
during his final five seasons. In October 2003, Treadwell's
remains, along with those of his girlfriend, Amie Huguenard, were
discovered near their campsite in Alaska's Katmai National Park and
Reserve. They had been mauled and devoured by a grizzly, the first
known victims of a bear attack in the park. Herzog plumbs not only
the mystery of wild nature, but also the mystery of human nature as
he chronicles Treadwell's final years in the wilderness. Herzog
uses Treadwell's own startling documentary footage to paint a
nuanced portrait of a complex and compelling figure while exploring
larger questions about the uneasy relationship between man and
nature.
