Alfred Jones (Ewan McGregor) is een in visserij gespecialiseerde wetenschapper die, in dienst van de overheid, de ogenschijnlijk onmogelijke taak krijgt om zalm te introduceren in de hooglanden van Jemen. Aangemoedigd door de opdrachtgever, een sympathieke sjeik, en zijn charmante woordvoerster Harriet Chetwode – Talbot (Emily Blunt), wordt dit een project dat uiteindelijk niet alleen Jones zijn leven, maar ook de Britse politieke geschiedenis zal doen veranderen.

Storyline
A visionary sheik believes his passion for the peaceful pastime of salmon fishing can enrich the lives of his people, and he dreams of bringing the sport to the not so fish-friendly desert. Willing to spare no expense, he instructs his representative to turn the dream into reality, an extraordinary feat that will require the involvement of Britain's leading fisheries expert who happens to think the project both absurd and unachievable. That is, until the Prime Minister's overzealous press secretary latches on to it as a 'good will' story. Now, this unlikely team will put it all on the line and embark on an upstream journey of faith and fish to prove the impossible, possible.
