Jean Kayak sells strong apple cider in the 19th-century North American woods. After beavers ruin his cider business, he wakes alone in the snow with no money or food. He struggles to survive, learns trapping from a skilled hunter, and trades animal skins for tools. The movie tells its story through black-and-white pictures, title cards, music, and physical jokes, with many animals played by people in costumes. Jean later falls for a trader's daughter, who makes clothes from animal skins. Her father says Jean must bring him hundreds of beavers before he can marry her. Jean keeps testing traps and tricks while the beavers build a huge wooden fort and fight back. The story follows Jean's change from a hungry, clumsy seller into a skilled trapper, with jokes shaped by old cartoons and silent comedy.
