Twelve year old Ava Bigtree must travel into the Underworld part of the Florida Everglades in order to save her family's dynasty. Swamplandia!, the Bigtree family's island home and gator-wrestling theme park, formerly no. 1 in the region, is swiftly being encroached upon by a fearsome and sophisticated competitor called the World of Darkness. Portrays a family's struggle to stay afloat, against a backdrop of hauntingly fecund plant life animated by ancient lizards and lawless hungers.
