Two homeless cousins desperately try to survive the streets of Port-Of Spain Trinidad. Thieves, by street credit, they routinely hunt the local market in search of unsuspecting shoppers but times are getting harder and the pickings slim. Will fortune favor the brave? Or will their desperate actions lead to their demise.

A very good drama from Trinidad & Tobago, which won the Best Short Film award in the Belize Film Festival, Shaun Escayg's "Fish" benefits from a very direct story and above average "mise-en-caméra" that instead of preaching includes a single telling shot that suggests the rationale behind the marginality of the main character Fish (handsome Marc Escayg) and his cousin Sticky in modern day Port-of-Spain. While trying to survive stealing in a market, they get caught in a violent situation with drug dealers. A tight script with fast resolution, fine technical aspects and good performances, make "Fish" a winning step for the development of Caribbean commercial cinema.
