FULL LENGTH: 'for the fish' asks: How can we find (and keep) safety as queer people? What even is safety? Do fish have feelings? It’s 1974, deep in rural America. Uncle loves taxidermy, beer, and the oasis of solitude that they’ve built for themselves. Susanna isn’t quite sure what she loves...Maybe it’s fishing? Maybe it’s her best friend, Joanie? As the year comes to a close, Susanna’s big heart and quick temper keep her precariously perched between normalcy and disaster. And Uncle, grappling with their addiction and the task of parenting Susanna, finds themselves caught up in a wave of teenage turbulence. When a scaly monster rears its ugly head, Susanna and Uncle draw closer, bonded by an understanding few in their world will ever hold.
