Building Beartaria: an inspiring story in 2021

2021 · 125 min · Documentary

The ambitious idea of Beartaria grew from the mind of Owen Benjamin - former Hollywood stand-up comedian/actor turned homesteader and internet livestreamer who wants you to have children. Owen has been banned from most of the mainstream platforms and services for being unafraid to voice his opinions on a wide range of topics, but the politically correct censors couldn't stop him from building a community. The Bears seek to bypass the degeneracy of modern society and answer the question of "now what?". It is about growing and self-sustainability - no matter the scale. This documentary focuses on how a crowd-funded project starts taking shape: the building of cabins on undeveloped land in Northern Idaho. It highlights people who are united in their goal of creating a place where they can get together and have fun.
