Charles Morse is a rich, intelligent but seemingly lost and unhappy man, husband to a much younger woman named Mickey, a beautiful model. Charles accompanies her and her photographer Bob Green to the Alaskan mountains for a photo shoot - a weekend getaway that takes a sudden turn when Charles and Bob end up stranded in the wilderness after their plane crashes. Charles knows that Bob is having an affair with Mickey, though the two men must quickly put aside their romantic rivalry and learn to work together if they are to survive the elements - and the huge, bloodthirsty Kodiak bear that's tracking them. Charles proves to be a savvy survivalist and lives to tell their tale, an adventure that has given the billionaire a new lust for life.
