Plot

Based on a incredible true story that could only be a product of the extreme duress suffered under rampant Nazism (or any similar irrational reign of terror), The White Bear chronicles the daring of a Jewish scientist who manages to escape from a train full of Jewish captives being taken to a concentration camp. Knowing that death lies in wait at any corner, the scientist grabs an opportunity to assume the disguise of a performing white bear and it is that ploy that saves him from detection. The attitude and brutal viewpoints of the German official who controls the town in which the scientist is hiding, are contrasted with the Jew's own beliefs, for an added and important dimension to the story. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
