"Un ourson orphelin, un grand ours solitaire, deux chasseurs dans la forêt. Le point de vue des animaux." Telles sont les quatre lignes envoyés par Jean-Jacques Annaud à son producteur Claude Berry pour expliquer le projet de son film. "Après la "Guerre du feu", explique le réalisateur, je voulais aller plus loin, essayer de transmettre les émotions communes à toutes les espèces supérieures du monde animal. Eviter que les animaux aient des comportements calqués sur ceux des hommes, affublés de raisonnements de midinette, avec une voix off pour expliquer ce qui se passe."
In the mountainous wilds of British Columbia, Canada, circa 1885, a young grizzly bear cub suffers the accidental death of his mother from a rockslide while digging for honey. Forced to fend for himself, the cub struggles to find food and shelter. Elsewhere in the mountains, a large male grizzly is pursued by two trophy hunters (Jack Wallace (actor) and Tcheky Karyo). Although the younger hunter attempts to kill the bear, his shot fails to take the animal down, and the wounded bear flees. Coming across the grizzly a short time later, the cub attempts to befriend him. Uninterested in the cub and distracted by his wound, the adult bear warns the young orphan away with a growl. The cub approaches again, however, and manages to soothingly lick the other bear's wound. A friendship forms between the two bears, and the grizzly takes the orphan under his wing, teaching him to fish and hunt. At night, the cub suffers from nightmares, reliving the tragic death of his mother.
