Overview
Hushpuppy, an intrepid six-year-old girl, lives with her father, Wink in ‘the Bathtub’, a southern Delta community at the edge of the world. Wink’s tough love prepares her for the unraveling of the universe—for a time when he’s no longer there to protect her. When Wink contracts a mysterious illness, nature flies out of whack—temperatures rise, and the ice caps melt, unleashing an army of prehistoric creatures called aurochs. With the waters rising, the aurochs coming, and Wink’s health fading, Hushpuppy goes in search of her lost mother.

Viewing Notes
Caught this after work… looked forward to viewing this after all the fest buzz. And I can see why. It’s very good. Dreamlike and heartfelt. I can’t say that it blew me away (like some critics have reacted) but I do think it’s worth seeing.
