Storyline
Kenai, a man who resents bears after a fight with one kills his older brother, is turned into a bear so he can see life from a different perspective. He is visited by the spirit of his older brother, and is told that, if he wishes to be changed back into a human, he must travel to the place where the lights touch the Earth, in other words, the Northern Lights. Fueled by hope, Kenai sets off on his long journey, and, along the way, encounters a younger bear, Koda, who is a chatterbox and a fun-loving spirit; Koda is trying to find his way back to his home, the Salmon Run, which, coincidentally, is right next to where the lights touch the Earth. Koda and Kenai team up, but are hunted by Kenai's other brother, Denahi, who fears that the a bear has killed Kenai as well. Along the way, the two bears meet other friends, including too moose, some rams, and some mammoths, with who they hitch a ride... Written by fallgeek

When the three of us were young, we were taught that the world is full of magic. The source of this magic is the ever-changing lights that dance across the sky...

Trivia
The only one of the major animated Disney movies (which do not include Dinosaur) to include the black and orange Disney Pictures logo in its initial release. The black and orange logo was first used in 2000 and only lasted until 2006 when an elaborate CGI logo was unveiled during the opening of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. See more »Goofs
Factual errors: In the opening scene, the DVD subtitles identify the narrator as Sitka, when it is actually Denahi. See more »Quotes
