About This Movie

Building Beartaria: Beartaria Rises dives into the world conceptualized by Owen Benjamin, who transitioned from Hollywood to homesteading. This documentary, part two in a series, explores the highs and lows of his vision for a self-sustaining community. The tone is unpolished, almost raw, reflecting Owen's unfiltered persona. The pacing is a mix of contemplative moments and more frenetic sequences that capture the chaos of trying to realize a dream. The atmosphere is layered with a sense of camaraderie among like-minded individuals, but also the challenges they face. It’s notable for its practical effects—real-life attempts at building a community, which gives it a grounded feel. The performances are honest, sometimes awkward, but they carry a genuine spirit of determination.
