Early in the year 2000, an extraordinary group of culturally minded, die-hard creative types huddled around a smoldering fire in an attempt to survive the frightful February freeze. Actually, the bit about the creative types is true but it really took place in a cozy tavern (by the fire) over a bottle of wine and some buffalo burgers. The scene was Milford, Pennsylvania, a mountainside Mecca for cutting-edge professionals and vacationers alike, on the Delaware River only an hour and a half northwest of New York City. And the idea hatched on that frigid February afternoon was a film festival. The Black Bear Film Festival. Their mission: To support and promote innovative, independent films.
Black Bear’s mandate is compelling ... its programming unique ... and its coordinators comprised of influential, thought-leading individualists who would rather face death than sacrifice the integrity of a film or venue. Generational to the area, relatively new to the area, or weekenders, they are committed to producing a program that is only pure in spirit and thought-provoking in content.
