Elokuvan päähenkilö on 6-vuotias kikkarapää Hushpuppy, jonka isän nimi on Wink. Paikka on Bathtub, rämeinen suoseutu jossain eteläisen Louisianan tulvapatojen ulkopuolella ja sivistyksen tuolla puolen. Elämä pyörii perimmäisten asioiden äärellä: vedestä nousee rapuja ja niiden kavereita niin paljon kuin jaksaa syödä. Kotipolttoinen tippuu joka tönössä. Kun taivas aukeaa tuoden tullessaan vimmaisen tulvan ja pyörremyrskyn, katsomo pääsee osalliseksi alkukantaisesta elämyksestä. Beasts of The Southern Wild taistelee kaikkea modernia, kunnollista ja turvallista vastaan. Se on New Orleansin merellisiin maisemiin kajahtaneen ohjaaja Benh Zeitlinin hempeänraivoisa idylli ihmisistä, jotka elävät sulassa sovussa luonnon kanssa.
Rocks from a meteor which grow when in contact with water threaten a sleepy Southwestern desert community.

About an hour's drive from Salt Lake City, Utah is the ski resort of Alta, a former mining town, nestled within the Wasatch Mountains. Skiing and other winter alpine pursuits take place well into mid-spring. The relatively new ski lift is one of the longest in the western US. Some ride the lift not to ski down but to glance at the view from the 1,500 foot summit. Being the end of May, people at nearby Salt Lake are instead enjoying more summerly pursuits, such as boating. Behind only the Dead Sea, it ranks second among all large inland lakes for the saline content at 27%, the buoyancy from which makes it almost impossible to sink in. On shore at Black Rock Beach of the Bonneville Salt Flats is the site of many attempts of land speed records, most records held by Ab Jenkins. Another popular activity in the lake itself is the crystallization of salt around wire forms, the process which requires relatively still water and takes about two hours.
