Teddy Bear -- Bonus short films by director Mads Matthiesen: Cathrine (26 min.) ; Dennis (18 min.)

Teddy Bear: Dennis, a painfully shy 38-year old body builder, would like to find true love. He has never had a girlfriend and lives with his mother in a suburb of Copenhagen. When his uncle marries a woman from Thailand, Dennis decides to try his own luck on a visit to Pattaya as it seems love is easier to find there. Knowing his mother would never accept another woman in his life, he lies and tells her he is going to Germany for a competition. Pattaya turns out to be a cultural shock for him. The intrusive Thai girls shatter his naive picture of what love should be like. He is about to lose hope when he unexpectedly meets the woman of his dreams. There may be hope for him if he can only confront his mother.

Cathrine: "Cathrine (16) has fallen in love with Lars (33), whom she met in a local shopping centre. Cathrine conceals the relationship from her controlling parents, but one day after school her secret is revealed." -- Container.

Dennis: "When introverted bodybuilder Dennis invites a local girl out on a date his mother is hurt and disappointed. Despite the pressure she puts on him to cancel the date, Dennis ventures into a night that he will never forget. This award-winning short was the basis for Teddy Bear." --Container.
