The Bear/Running Free/Fly Away Home DVD

Fly Away Home - Young Amy (Anna Paquin) is reunited with her father (Jeff Daniels) after a nine year separation. One day, Amy discovers a nest of orphaned goose eggs and decides to take them home and nurture them until they hatch. When the newly hatched goslings adopt her as their Mother Goose, Amy and her father become airborne adventurers, battling against bad weather and a host of other pitfalls in their efforts to teach the geese to fly.

Running Free - Running Free is the inspiring story of a remarkable friendship between an abandoned young colt called Lucky and an orphaned boy (Chase Moore) who rescues the young horse from a life of hard labour in the copper mines of Nambia. Together they find the strength to stand up to the cruel plantation owner and his mean-spirited thoroughbred Caesar; fleeing the destruction of the escalating war, they chase after the freedom they both deserve. Narrated by Lukas Haas and starring Jan Decleir, Arie Verveen, as well as Chase Moore and Maria Geelboi in their big screen debuts, Running Free is a visually stunning, unforgettable tale about the triumph of human - and equestrian - spirit.

The Bear - He's an orphan...at the start of his journey. A journey to survive. Few films have captured the raw essence of the wild like director Jean Jacques Annaud's The Bear. This award winning film, set in the majestic mountains of British Columbia in 1885, centres on a precocious bear cub (Youk the Bear) and an old Grizzly (Bart the Bear) as they struggle to endure the harsh wilderness and survive their deadliest foe - man.
