Sexåriga Hushpuppy bor med sin pappa i en liten by någon stans i den amerikanska södern. Hon får oftast klara sig själv och ser världen runt sig som ett ömtåligt nät av levande varelser, där hela universums existens är beroende av att alla delar passar ihop. Men en dag rubbas ordningen, byn översvämmas och hennes pappa blir allvarligt sjuk. I ett desperat försök att återställa ordningen måste den lilla hjältinnan ta sig an en katastrof av episka proportioner.

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.
