molly & the great bear is an independent publication and home for my documentary work.
I'm Molly Condit, an independent documentary filmmaker, photographer and writer exploring the relationships between people, animals and the systems that shape their lives.
I'm currently documenting animal hoarding investigations across Pima County, Arizona following the work of Animal Protection Services (APS) and Pima Animal Care Center (PACC).
This site is where that work lives as it unfolds - stories from the field, the filmmaking process and reflections shaped by time spent with the animals and people I encounter. Alongside the documentaries, you'll find writing, photographs and occasional musings on motorcycling, life and everything in between.
Subscribers receive new writing and film updates as they’re published. Support from readers (free or paid) helps sustain ongoing filming, field access and the continuation of this work.
Thank you for being here.
