Shorts from the Vermont Bear Film Festival

Own It Today

dir. John Scagliotti; Clark Nikolai, US, 2007, video, 66 mins

Overall, we liked the DVD. Husbear and I sat down to watch the shorts with little expectations of what to expect. As with any collection from a film festival, some you love, some not much. And, which ones depend on your tastes.

The collection offers a wide range from woofy fisherman finding true love (lust?) on the North Sea set to an old German drinking song to a peak into the Faerie Culture to young lust over a neighbor’s dad. Our favorite was PAW Award winner Avec des Excuses á Alfred (Hitchcock would approve).

The collection provides a nice cross section of the bear community including a historic interview with Allen Ginsberg, a peak into various periods of bear history and a few light, amusing moments.
