Oskari (Onni Tommila), a timid 13-year-old, must spend one day and one night alone in the wilderness. Armed with only a bow and arrow, he must return with a prize to prove himself a man. Terrified and alone, he wanders through a vast and unforgiving forest when suddenly he hears a deafening rumble. Racing to investigate, Oskari discovers an escape pod. Not just any escape pod - this pod belongs to Air Force One and the battered and bruised man lying before him is the President of the United States (Samuel L. Jackson)! (Madman Entertainment)
