Maggie? Rainbow? Leeward and Mary cannot even agree on their three year old daughter's name anymore. Mary is a hardworking nurse who dreams of only one thing: changing her life. She resents her husband for being an irresponsible, overgrown adolescent, incapable of holding down a job. Leeward is an atypical, idealistic musician who fancies himself a misunderstood artist and a New Age visionary. Enter Lilas, a 19 year old French artist and the daughter of a world famous painter, who is trying to make it in New York and get away from an overbearing mother. When the bubbly young woman moves into the couple's tiny Chinatown apartment, their already fragile balance is upset even further. Between surrealism, unusual characters, art and magic tricks, Swim Little Fish Swim is a dreamlike journey from childhood to adulthood.

Movie Reviews

Moveable Fest - 9/10 by Stephen SaitoI wouldn't be surprised to learn she was the one who the filmmakers most identified with since "Swim Little Fish Swim" is just as mischievous and natural, not to mention an unexpected treat as a result.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Sam WeisbergThe performances often enliven the stale material... But the script's naïveté is galling.
IndieWire - 8/10 by Eric KohnThis admittedly uneven first feature stands out for the way it sneaks up on you.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Nick PriggeIt subtly counteracts the cliché that creative expression can save your life by making its protagonist a hipster Peter Pan whose creative expression is an excuse not to grow up.
Film.com - 7/10 by Calum MarshWhat ultimately holds the film back, I believe, is its tendency to err too far on the side of that sweetness — it indulges too often in the hallmarks of the mediocre indie, the stuff a press release might call quirk, to level its more substantial points with real seriousness.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Sheri LindenAn art-versus-commerce drama that consists of one beautifully aching performance surrounded by a whole lotta twee.
Film Journal International - 7/10 by David NohYet another dull entry in the indie downtown New York genre. So young and so vapid.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Frank ScheckThis low-key indie drama has enough well observed, insightful moments to compensate for its occasional lapses into forced quirkiness.
The Dissolve - 7/10 by Sheila O’MalleyThere are small moments that shiver with chaos and uncontrollable emotion in Swim Little Fish Swim.
The New York Times - 3/10 by Neil GenzlingerMumbly dialogue, relentlessly jittery camerawork, a star who is also co-director and co-writer: Yes, it’s time for another movie that mistakes the claustrophobic world of young New York artsy types for something interesting.
