Tideland centers on an abandoned child, Jeliza-Rose, and her solitary adventures during one summer in rural Texas while staying at a rundown farmhouse called What Rocks, and focuses on the increasingly dark, imaginative fantasy life the girl creates with the aid of dismembered Barbie doll heads that she often wears on her fingertips. With names such as Mystique, Sateen Lips, Baby Blonde and Glitter Gal, the doll heads not only engage in long conversations with Jeliza-Rose, reflecting different aspects of the girl's psyche, but also act as her companions while she explores the barren Texas landscape.

À l'époque victorienne, un jeune couple, Constance et Joseph Barton, vivent dans une immense demeure au cœur de Londres. A l’origine complices et fusionnels, leurs relations, notamment sexuelles, se sont ternies depuis l’arrivée de leur fille Angelica, née dans des circonstances traumatisantes. Depuis, suivant le conseil de son médecin, elle pratique l'abstinence sexuelle pour ne plus souffrir. Au détriment de son époux, Constance s'est mise à surprotéger leur enfant, s'éloignant progressivement de Joseph. Un matin, la petite fille fait une confidence inquiétante à ses parents : chaque nuit, une mystérieuse présence prédatrice vient lui rendre visite dans sa chambre. Si son père ne prête guère attention aux dires de sa fille, Constance, troublée, tente d’en savoir plus. Terrorisée qu’il puisse arriver malheur à son enfant, elle se met en tête de sonder les recoins obscurs de la maison afin de percer à jour la terrifiante menace. D'autant plus qu'elle commence elle aussi à voir ce spectre comme sa fille, une forme humaine qui laisse un ectoplasme ressemblant à du sperme sur son passage... Une manifestation surnaturelle qui intensifie ses peurs sexuelles et son anxiété liée à son enfant.
