ONLY BEARS is a short film about a married couple navigating intimacy, stagnation, and connection when love alone isn’t enough to move them forward. Set inside the quiet rhythms of domestic life, the film explores what happens after the fairy tale ending — when two people who chose each other are still figuring out how to grow, change, and stay connected. It’s funny, tender, and a little absurd, because long-term love often is. At its heart, Only Bears is about bodies of size, intimacy, and the moments where connection doesn’t arrive with fireworks — but with honesty, patience, and humor.
Directed by Billy Clift, Only Bears leans on a strong ensemble — Adam Kern, Jeff Willey, Santana Dempsey — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2026.
