The Saint Regis Trout Aquarium is a small roadside attraction off of I-90 in Montana. The people that work there spend their days feeding trout, cleaning fish tanks and greeting tourists. When the trout begin to mysteriously die, management wants someone to blame. The employees are pitted against each other in order to save their jobs. Some cave to capitalist pressures, while others stand up for what they believe in. Trout Aquarium explores the brutality of a mundane workplace and what it means to work in a capitalist society.
