The film is set in a post-ice age North America, where the local tribesmen believe all creatures are created through the Spirits, who are said to appear in the form of an aurora. Three brothers: Kenai (voiced by Joaquin Phoenix)- the youngest brother, Denahi (voiced by Jason Raize)- the middle brother -and Sitka (voiced by D.B. Sweeney)- the eldest brother, return to their tribe in order for Kenai to receive his sacred totem, a necklace in the shape of an animal. The particular animal it represents symbolizes what he must achieve to call himself a man. Unlike Sitka, who gained the eagle of guidance, and Denahi, who gained the wolf of wisdom, Kenai receives the bear of love, to which he objects, stating that bears are thieves. He believes his point is made a fact when a bear takes some salmon. Kenai and his brothers pursue the bear, but a fight follows on a glacier, during which Sitka gives his life to save his brothers, although the bear survives. Vengeful, Kenai heads out to avenge Sitka. He chases the bear up onto a mountain and kills it. The Spirits, represented by Sitka's spirit in the form of a bald eagle, transform Kenai into a bear after the dead bear's body disappears. Denahi arrives, mistaking Kenai as dead, and believing the bear is responsible, vows to avenge Kenai by hunting it down.

Laurent, à 35 ans, a une idée toute simple du bonheur : sa banlieue ouvrière, le modeste pavillon où il a toujours vécu, sa mère, Simone, qui l'adore, le souvenir de son père qu'il accompagnait vendre «l'Huma», et enfin... son groupe industriel, numéro un dans son secteur. Il est loin le temps où sa mère devait effectuer des ménages pour faire bouillir la marmite. Et pourtant, bien que multimillionnaire, elle n'a rien changé à ses habitudes. Aujourd'hui, elle brique sa maison et tricote des layettes pour les bébés du quartier en attendant les petits enfants que Laurent ne semble pas pressé de lui donner. Récemment nommé chef d'entreprise de l'année, il est soudainement confronté à une crise sociale au sein de sa société. Habitué à la négociation et à la concertation, il pense que, comme toujours, tout va s'arranger. Mais après un malentendu avec les délégués syndicaux, Laurent durcit sa position. C'est la grève générale. Ce conflit lui permet néanmoins de se rapprocher de son assistante, Audrey. Mais maladresses, incompréhensions et quiproquos entraînent bientôt la rupture entre Laurent, sa mère et le quartier, et le brouillent avec Audrey. Entre-temps, Simone s'est mise en quête d'une femme pour son fils.
