Crafted from the film archive and journals of Timothy Treadwell (subject of Werner Herzog’s acclaimed documentary GRIZZLY MAN), this series takes us deep inside the unfolding dramas and life-and-death struggles of the wild animals he devoted his life to loving and understanding.
Werner Herzog's documentary film about the "Grizzly Man" Timothy Treadwell and what the thirteen summers in a National Park in Alaska were like in one man's attempt to protect the grizzly bears. The film is full of unique images and a look into the spirit of a man who sacrificed himself for nature.
Made famous by Werner Herzog's documentary GRIZZLY MAN, late bear enthusiast Timothy Treadwell spent several months each year living among the grizzlies in Alaska's Katmai National Park. This riveting documentary follows Treadwell on one of his last journeys into the wilderness. Recording the activities of the bears he encounters on his video camera, he comes face-to-face with a giant male and witnesses a brutal turf war between rival clans.
Timothy Treadwell (born Timothy William Dexter; April 29, 1957 – October 5, 2003) was an American bear enthusiast, environmentalist, and documentary filmmaker and founder of the bear-protection organization Grizzly People.
