BearStory is an animation of a true story about the era of Pinochet in Chile.

Augusto Pinochet, who in 1973 with the support of the United States, overthrew the democratically elected left-wing President Allende in a bloody coup and established a right-wing military government. During his tenure, he carried out neoliberal economic reforms, which made Chile's economy develop rapidly, but at the same time brutally attacked dissidents, resulting in a large number of human rights violations. Director Gabriel Osorio's grandfather Leopoldo Osorio lived in the era of Pinochet.

The first act of the film summarizes the main body of the film: the way of expression, the background music, the development of the mood, the tone of the emotion. (The first scene here refers to: Daddy Bear waved happily to the sound of music, the alarm clock rang, Daddy Bear dimmed instantly. This scene said that Daddy Bear had a happy life, and the destruction came , making the life of Daddy Bear fall into darkness. The mechanical bear in this scene speaks the narrative form of the entire animation, and a single Daddy Bear sets the tone for the animation) In the

second scene, see the photos on the wall, and then look at the style of the room, Makes the audience wonder if this is real, or if Daddy Bear imagined it himself? The director left a question for the audience here, so that the audience has the desire to continue watching, and wants to know whether all this is true or not, if it is true, what is the reason for such a result; if it is false, then why did Daddy Bear make it one such scene.

Act Four From the close-up of that photo, the audience understands that the photo was imagined by Daddy Bear, but there seems to be something wrong. Then some people appeared, and in the first few shadow appearances, it seemed that these people were righteous, and they killed the monster. The appearance of the shadow in the last scene reveals the right and wrong of the shadows in the preceding scenes. At the same time, the shadow in the last scene deeply captured the hearts of the audience, and the sound of the stick hitting the hearts of the audience was painful and sad.

The first flyer of the sixth act circus, Papa Bear just got used to the new life and was hit hard; the second leaflet, Papa Bear just raised his passion and was suppressed; the third leaflet, the bear What will be the fate of my father?

In the last scene, Father Bear watched deeply as the child took the parent's hand and gradually left under the night, returned to his senses for a long time, and smiled slightly. It is this kind of strength that supports Papa Bear to live happily no matter what he has experienced.

The people in the small theater wear real military uniforms, they are symbols of the government. They bring the economy through mutilation. The story of the theater has a happy ending, I hope, unfortunately, it will not happen. If you have painful memories or are experiencing unhappiness, you can be strong and let go of unhappiness, and live happily and happily.
