Fish Out of Water
Written & Directed by Kirsten Carthew
2015, Canada
In a wintry post-apocalyptic world, a young woman fishes on a frozen lake for her only source of food. When another survivor arrives on the scene, the woman’s solitary way of life stands to change permanently.
Those who like their apocalyptic cinema on the frigid side should watch this accomplished short as a double-feature with Daniel Byers’ Ice Man.
Auteur Carthew’s futuristic feature film Polaris has its world premiere at this year’s Fantasia Film Festival.
