How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A haunting meditation on a man's compulsive devotion to grizzly bears, and Herzog's skeptical, unflinching gaze at the boundary between protection and delusion. The film builds inexorably toward its tragic knowledge, never looking away from either Treadwell's passion or the wilderness's indifference.
