A desperate and pathetic Irish fisherman makes a sexual pact with an ancient sea creature in order to prevent his dying mother's soul from going to hell. (Sitges Film Festival)
Kritiken (1)
Fishmonger is a very entertaining and wacky comedy short produced by the American Film Institute (AFI) in which the main character, a poor Irish fisherman, embarks on a journey to save the soul of his dying mother. A journey that includes, among other things, a forced engagement, suicide attempts, a romantic musical number and tentacle-sex with a mermaid. It's a witty sailor's tale whose dramatic line works better in its 26-minute running time than other films perhaps three times longer.
