Story Synopsis

A spiritual wildlife adventure, Alaska tells the story of 13 year-old Jessie (Thora Birch) and 15 year-old Sean (Vincent Kartheiser), as they challenge both nature and themselves on a death-defying mission through the Arctic wilderness. The teenagers, who are saddened by the recent death of their mother find themselves searching a treacherous mountain range for their father, whose plane went down on a mercy air flight. Along the way, they free an orphan polar bear cub from a poacher (Charlton Heston) who pursues them on their search.
