Itinerary:

'Expedition Grizzly' (USA, 2009, 51 min) Producers: Leslie M. Gaines, Thomas Winston
In the wildest corner of the American west, the epic story of the Yellowstone grizzly continues to unfold. Join Casey Anderson, a naturalist whose life has been defined by this incredible species, together with his best friend Brutus, a 900-pound grizzly that Anderson raised from birth. Throughout this odyssey, Anderson explores the many risks that threaten the island population of grizzly bears living in the Yellowstone ecosystem.

'A Life Ascending' (USA, 2010, 57 min) Director/Producer: Stephen Grynberg
Living with his wife and two young daughters on a remote glacier in the Selkirk Mountains of British Columbia, Ruedi Beglinger has built a reputation as one of the top mountaineering guides in the world. The film follows his familyï¿½s unique life in the mountains and their journey in the years following a massive avalanche that killed seven people. The film ultimately explores the power of nature as both an unforgiving host and profound teacher.
