National Geographic: The Great White Bear

National Geographic's THE GREAT WHITE BEAR details two years in the life of a mother polar bear and her twin cubs on an island between Norway and the North Pole. The mother polar bear must frequently ward off male predators and simultaneously teach her cubs how to survive in the wild. Many breathtaking helicopter shots make the documentary quite intense and exciting, as the lives of these polar bears are dramatized into a kind of narrative form. National Geographic's THE GREAT WHITE BEAR realistically shows polar bears in all their enormity, beauty, and cruelty, situated within their own natural environment.
