The story follows a little girl and her pet fish and their somewhat complicated relationship. After a misunderstanding, she throws the fish into the river. Later, at dance class, she is remorseful and goes back to the river to find the fish again.
Well executed animation made of simple line drawings and minimal use of color. The storyline is a bit confusing and, had I not read the synopsis, it may have been lost to me. At the same time, it's compelling and thought provoking. Younger audiences would be confused by this, but older teens would enjoy it I believe.
The film's message is about the emotional bonds we form with the animals in our life.
I give Fish 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
