In the cold, frigid climate of Winnipeg, Sumi, a schoolteacher, slips and falls. Her caring and anxious mother, Sara, flies from South Korea to Winnipeg to visit her daughter, who has fallen into a coma and is hospitalized for recovery. While she waits for her daughter to recover, she begins to fulfill her motherly vows—finding a suitable husband for Sumi, a task that will often prove more difficult and incomprehensible than she anticipates. A chance meeting with Sumi’s co-worker Amaya leads Sara to learn more about the life from which her daughter has chosen to exclude her. And if you were wondering about that eponymous bear… well, you’ll need to come to see the film.
