Polar bear didn’t escape from Belfast Zoo at any time but there was a thing in the 70s with Peter the polar bear. An escape scare. Basically a polar bear died and they were transporting his carcass when a few people thought he was moving and making noises and believed the bear to be alive and was now out of the zoo. But he wasn’t. I think they’ve credited this as the actual inspiration for the plot too.

I don’t know if you’ve seen it but ms De Brun is mirroring Robin Williams in Dead Poets Society at school. And then last act is tying the kids story in with the adults with their situation mirroring Usual Suspects. Love it when they pull in movie stuff👏🏼👏🏼
