Bear Lake
Zoë Maltby, Liz Power, Gabe Lozada
Bear Lake tells the story of a 17-year-old Utah girl in 1989, a young Mormon pioneer woman in 1859 - and the ancient, brooding lake monster who unites them. As each navigates the pitfalls of first love, mortality, and identity, their stories begin to connect in ways both mythic and mundane. How do you deal with tragedy when just getting through a day of high school is a struggle? How do you love fully in a world defined by death? And what do you believe in, when you can’t believe in God?

One Day There Will Be No More Lakes
Bear Lake
07/26/23 • 27 min
In the first episode of Bear Lake, we meet 17-year-old Kayleen in 1989 - struggling with her mother’s death and her attraction toward her bad-girl classmate Tanya - and Emily in 1859, who follows a handsome Mormon missionary from England to Utah in search of something to believe in.
And then there’s the Bear Lake Monster: he just wants someone to love, but for now he’s stuck with native coral and old issues of Hustler.
As all three stories unfurl, Bear Lake explores what it means to love in a world where everything dies, and how to find the strength to live in the face of grief.
