Synopsis

A movie that illustrates what the bear community is like around the world. Originally, the bear community was created to gather gay men that the mainstream gay culture did not accept because they did not fit a particular physical stereotype. While this movement has evolved over the last twenty years and has become one of the largest and most substantial influences within the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) community, there is still some internal debate about what a bear really is.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
