Little Fish (2005)

A glazed depiction of resurrection
5 March 2024
This 2005 Australian art film tells the story of a former heroin addicted woman's search for resurrection.

Tracy Heart has survived the turmoil of drug addiction and she is trying to start from scratch, becoming the owner of a video store. When her ex boyfriend Jonny turns up again after years, she has to fight fiercely to save herself, her brother and her lover from the danger of drugs.

I enjoyed the glazed colours of the film, as if everything was the manifestation of dreams. Most of all I loved Cate Blanchett, a chamaleontic goddess capable of deep transformations.

The rest of the film left me with a sense of perplexity... it might have been the characters or the slow actions or the lack of strong emotions I felt. Not clear, but something did not click properly.
