Three Indian brothers, Kenai, Sitka and Denahi, live with other members of their family in a forest settlement. According to ancient tribal traditions, each of them will receive their totem animal. When it's Kenai's turn, his bear becomes his beast. But the boy is not exactly satisfied with that. One day, the brothers go fishing when a huge bear suddenly attacks them and kills Sitka. Kenai wants revenge. He chases the bear to the mountains and kills him there. The boy's life changes in an instant, as the Great Spirit transforms him into a bear to understand in his form what love, hope, happiness and friendship mean.
