Imagine if you were old and didn't have any meaning in life any longer. You just sat alone in your house all day doing absolutely nothing. You'd be a grumpy person no doubt. Carl was a grumpy old man, but he wasn't like that right from the beginning. It began with Charles Muntz the explorer. Carl was a die-hard fan of Muntz and idolised him. He befriended a girl, Eliie, who shared the same fascination about Muntz. Eliie was a free-spirited girl whereas Carl was a reserved boy. She always had a dream to live in Paradise falls, the forest where Muntz had gone exploring. She demanded Carl to promise that he'll take her there someday. As years passed, the two got married and Ellie's dream was long forgotten. As they got older, Carl remembered the promise he made and decided to surprise Ellie by taking her to Paradise falls. But before this could happen, Ellie fell sick and eventually passed on. Her death and scarred Carl and he was never whole again.
During his days of solace, a wilderness explorer, Russell meets Carl. They have a short encounter. Carl then gets in trouble for injuring a workman and people from a retirement village were coming to pick him up. Unexpectedly, Carl converts his house into a balloon-lifted house and sets off to Paradise falls. With more surprises on the way, he finds Russell sitting on his porch! The two go to Paradise falls and encounter some very strange animals and someone they never thought to find.
