Full Plot Details

Brothers Martin and Simon, not yet teens, are incorrigible vandals; Martin runs away from reform school, Simon from foster homes, and they always find each other in a seacoast town of Lignan, where their destructive behavior is infamous. (It may date to their mother's leaving the family.) Martin is philosophical, romantic, and poetic: he dreams of being the son of a shark; he holds tight to a book about goldfish his mother gave him. In both halting and wild ways, he tries to court Marie, a neighbor girl. Simon, with a pocketknife and an intractable will, seems more dangerous to others. What, on earth, is there for these children-becoming-men?

Movie Reviews

Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzSheds no light on how to treat such misunderstood children with severe emotional problems.
User Review - 10/10 by Len GOne of the most brilliant and poignant films of recent memory, "Son of a Shark" does not praise juvenile delinquency it treats it like it is harsh and real. The film has remained with me all these years since the brief U.S. release in '95 and will haunt the viewer forever. Hopefully it'll soon be digitally enhanced and released on Blu-Ray for all to see this magnificent film.
