Mickey and the Bear

Mickey is a young girl living in Anaconda, Montana, with her unstable, unemployed, and uninvolved ex-Marine father Hank. As a headstrong and independent high schooler, she has applied to a college far from home, but is reluctant to leave her hometown or abandon Hank to fend for himself. This father-daughter drama is told through small moments, rather than theatrical twists and turns, breathing a new life into the classic genre. The film not only reaches audiences with its plot, but also employs an impactful soundtrack, outstanding cinematography, and a magnificent background in Montana’s mountains to tell its hopeful story.
