This surreal comedy-drama is about the life of Dan, a game warden who suffers from severe anxiety and grief after a bear attack claims the life of his son. Through autumn, winter, and spring, Dan's mental health runs parallel with the life cycles of his foe, the black bear, only to culminate in spring as an awakening from hibernation. Filmed in rural Quebec, The Game Warden's visual solitude and talented cast embody the emotions that imprison the soul as one experiences great loss and gripping madness.
