One Day There Will Be No More Lakes

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.
