En los bosques del noroeste americano vive un niño indio llamado Kenai, cuya vida sufre un giro inesperado cuando los Grandes Espíritus lo transforman en un oso, el animal que más odia. Kenai se hace amigo de un osezno llamado Koda y se propone recuperar su forma humana. Mientras, su hermano (que no sabe que Kenai es ahora un oso) lo persigue para cumplir una misión de venganza en la que está en juego el honor familiar.
Norton Burbeck
The film opens in Ireland, as a dying Patrick McNairne tells his daughter Jerry to go to New York and look up Norton Burbeck, a wealthy young man whose life Patrick had saved some time earlier (the surviving print, largely complete, lacks the second page insert of a letter explaining the full background). The affable Burbeck is due to inherit his uncle’s fortune provided he’s married by November; if not, the inheritance will go to his cousin Howard Curtis. An adventuress, Beatrice Gaden, and her husband Dick are in cahoots with Curtis: Beatrice pretends to be single in order to string Norton along up to the November date, at which time Curtis will come into the money and give a share to his unscrupulous partners.
