CGiii Comment

The politics of being...a bear!

Defining a bear is a little more problematic than describing them as fat and hairy...it seems.

Who the hell cares?!?

Driveling non-bears talk endlessly of the attraction they have for bears...bordering on the pathetic.

This is not a patch on Ingram's previous film...in fact, it falls into the category of scrapping the barrel.


Trailer...

 

The(ir) Blurb...

Malcolm Ingram introduces us to gay men who dig big dudes who are stockier and hairier than the airbrushed ideal served by up lifestyle magazines and underwear ads. From 'bear runs' - the circuit parties of the ursine - to men proudly accepting their own bodies (and the beer bellies the want to cuddle), Bear Nation proves love really does come in all shapes and sizes.
