Teddy Bear is a 2012 Danish drama film directed by Mads Matthiesen based on his short film. This film tells the story of Dennis, a painfully shy 38-year-old bodybuilder (played by real-life bodybuilder Kim Kold), who still lives with his overbearing mother in suburban Copenhagen. After his uncle marries a young woman from Thailand, Dennis decides to travel there to seek love and escape his mom. His journey leads him to explore his own independence and capacity for connection.

Teddy Bear is a tender drama that blends themes of loneliness and the quest for love, marked by Kold's understated performance. The film was well-liked by critics and won an award at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival.
