Jack Mason, a homeless man from Seattle, Washington, loses his only friends—his pet dog Mingo and fellow vagrant Hank—within a day of each other. The dejected Mason attempts to commit suicide but is saved by Walter Cole, who witnessed Mason avoid the soup kitchen Cole is working with. Cole refers him to businessman Thomas Burns, owner of Hell's Canyon Outfitters. Burns offers Mason a job as a hunting guide. Despite his initial misgivings, Mason accepts. Flying to a remote cabin surrounded by acres of woods, Mason meets the rest of the hunting party, all of whom paid $50,000 for the privilege of being there. In addition to Burns and Cole, the party includes: Ted "Doc" Hawkins, a retired Central Intelligence Agent and psychiatrist who's also the founder of HCO; Texas oil magnate John Griffin; and wealthy father-and-son Wall Street executives Derek Wolfe Senior and Junior. On the first night, all the men chat over dinner. Mason receives cigarettes from Hawkins, who relays a story from his childhood about how his father forced him to fight and kill his own dog as a coming-of-age ritual to become a man.

Alexander is an actor who gave up the stage to work as a journalist, critic and lecturer on aesthetics. He lives in a beautiful house with his actress wife Adelaide, stepdaughter Marta, and young son, "Little Man", who is temporarily mute due to a throat operation. Alexander and Little Man plant a tree by the seaside, when Alexander's friend Otto, a part-time postman, delivers a birthday card to him. When Otto asks, Alexander says his relationship with God is "nonexistent". After Otto leaves, Adelaide and Victor, a medical doctor and a close family friend who performed Little Man's operation, arrive and offer to take Alexander and Little Man home in Victor's car, but Alexander prefers to stay behind and talk to his son. In his monologue, he first recounts how he and Adelaide found their house near the sea by accident, and how they fell in love with it and its surroundings, but then enters a bitter tirade against the state of modern man. Little Man hides from Alexander and jumps on his back as a surprise, but Alexander accidentally bats him away, giving Little Man a nosebleed. As Tarkovsky wrote, Alexander is weary of "the pressures of change, the discord in his family, and his instinctive sense of the threat posed by the relentless march of technology"; in fact, he has "grown to hate the emptiness of human speech"
