Living in a post-apocalyptic underground bunker isn’t so bad when you have an infinite number of episodes of your favorite TV show to watch. At least that’s what James thinks.

Then he’s released from captivity and finds out his whole life has been a lie. Now an innocent in the outside world, James longs for the comfort offered by the bunker-only kid’s show Brigsby Bear Adventures. With help from his newfound family and friends, James’ attempt at filming a concluding chapter of Brigsby, could free him from his past and provide him a connection to the real world.

Brigsby Bear is a movie like you’ve never seen. Funny, sad, and sometimes weird, it plays as a testament to the possibility that pulp culture fandom can bring out the best in us.
