German (Deutsch)
Laura Pickler führt das Leben einer Vorbild-Amerikanerin. Ihr größter Stolz ist jedoch, dass ihr Mann Bob der amtierende Butter-Skulpturen-Champion in Iowa ist. Laura sieht darin das Sprungbrett zu Ruhm und Reichtum. Als Bob jedoch gebeten wird, als dauerhafter Champion zurückzutreten, um auch anderen eine Möglichkeit auf den Titel zu ermöglichen, ist dies für Laura zu viel. Sie bricht zusammen. In einem Wutanfall stellt sie Bob vor ihrer Teenager-Tochter bloß, woraufhin sich dieser auf eine heiße Nacht in einem Strip-Club einlässt. Vollkommen benommen beschließt Laura daraufhin, die Sache selbst in die Hand zu nehmen, und tritt selber bei der Meisterschaft an. Mögliche Konkurrenz kann sie auch nirgends erkennen. Bis die zehnjährige Destiny auftaucht, die von einer Familie in der Stadt adoptiert wurde und ein goldenes Händchen im Umgang mit Butter zu haben scheint...

L'ambitieuse mère de famille Laura Pickler menait jusqu'à présent une vie parfaite à l'image de ses convictions politiques conservatrices : mariée à un champion de sculpture sur beurre, elle est sous les feux des projecteurs. Mais voilà que son mari décide de mettre un terme à sa carrière, la poussant à participer elle-même à un tournoi de cette discipline originale. Deux adversaires coriaces s'opposent à elle : la maîtresse de son mari et une fille de 10 ans très douée. Avec l'aide de son ancien amour de lycée, elle va tout faire pour se hisser à la première place du podium...
