About Der Bär ist los! Die Geschichte von Bruno
A brown bear in the wild causes a sensation as a border crosser between Tyrol and Bavaria. Because Master Petz snatches many a lamb, repeatedly plunders beehives and prefers to visit garden inns to feast on the food and drink (including a pint) of the escaped guests, the alarmed people demand that the beast be shot down. After some initial bickering, this unpopular decision is also accepted at a political level, with Bavarians and Tyroleans alike hoping that the execution will be carried out by their neighbor.
Directed by Xaver Schwarzenberger, Der Bär ist los! Die Geschichte von Bruno leans on a strong ensemble — Harald Krassnitzer, Fritz Karl, Nadeshda Brennicke — 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 screen titles of 2009.
