The Fish Tale (2022)

dir. Shuichi Okita

There is no one like Meebo, and no one who loves fish more.

A whimsical coming-of-age story about an aspiring fish expert navigating an unconventional life path, Shuichi Okita offers another tender portrait of an offbeat, empathetic character who connects deeply with the natural world.

Based on the memoir of Sakana-kun, an online celebrity ichthyologist in Japan, The Fish Tale gently unfolds through scenes of everyday encounters tinged with magical realism, blending moments of quiet marine wonder that articulate a gentle coexistence between humans and the sea.
