action

The young inventor Flint Lockwood lives in the small port town of Affenfels (in the original Swallow Falls ), where he attends the local high school. Life in the city revolves almost exclusively around sardines, which play a crucial role in the economy as well as in the culture and daily life of the residents. When a new classmate appears at Flint's school, he becomes friends with her: Sam Sparks, who later wants to become a weather reporter and is therefore primarily interested in meteorology . Together they experience different adventures, most of which are caused by Flint's more or less functioning inventions.
