When a 12-year-old chimney sweep is wrongfully blamed for being a thief, he makes a run for it, and lands head-first into a pool of water.

Before he can return to the surface and clear his name, however, he must help the Water Babies leave their enclosed lake and reach the free waters of the ocean.
