6-year-old Hushpuppy lives with Wink, her hateful and sick father, in the remains of a bus in Bathtub, a Louisiana bayou separated from the world by a dam. A storm approaches but Wink stays put. After a terrible night, during which Hushpuppy imagines that aurochses freed by the thawing ice are on their way to eat them, the man and his daughter leave the next day on a boat across the flooded land in search of survivors. During a drunken but joyous binge, the girl learns to mash crabs for eating. A rescue team catches up with them and takes them by force to a shelter, where they reject help and run away. Hushpuppy tries to find her mother to help save her dying father...
