🎬 The Line They Can’t See

Grizzly bears don’t know where Yellowstone ends. We do.
And when they cross those invisible borders, the rules change — not for them, but for us.

The Line They Can’t See is the theatrical cut of Episode 4 of The Choice — reimagined as a standalone short documentary. It dives into the contradictions of “problem bears” and “problem people,” showing how lines drawn on a map can decide whether a bear lives or dies.

Through intimate bear stories, on-the-ground encounters, and a critical look at management practices, the film reframes conflict: the bears aren’t breaking rules — we are.
