Plot:

Drifting rapidly aloft with the wind atop a plump hot air balloon, Buster, the novice aerostat rider, leaves a macabre carnival funhouse attraction, only to find himself marooned in a bear-infested forest, utterly unfit for survival. Amid a plethora of wildlife adversaries, Buster must summon up the courage to prevail; however, how will he survive in the unforgiving wilderness, let alone find love?
