A group of local youngsters can be seen enjoying the game from a distance of roughly 100 metres in the one-minute video. The maternal bear rushes after the ball in the video, and the cub chases after her. The mama bear not only kicks the ball but also demonstrates some outstanding talents. She can be seen tossing the football in the air and then tossing it down again. The mother was also spotted trying to catch the football after passing it to the cub. In the final scene of the movie, a mob of children cheered the bears as they carried the football back to the woods in a lighthearted manner.
