Fish Bowl

DirectorRachel Sweeney

It's not a body.

18 min

Fish Bowl is a dark comedy about Zoe, a woman who experiences a miscarriage at her wedding rehearsal dinner. Its unique tone, which expertly straddles laugh-out-loud comedy and heartbreaking drama, depicts the reality of losing an unwanted pregnancy. Pregnancy loss is extremely common yet grossly under-depicted in TV and film. Here in the US, dangerous abortion laws are passing everyday. Fish Bowl is a radically pro-choice film that needs to be seen. A haunting score comopsed by Nandi Rose, known for her own music as Half Waif, provides a powerful undercurrent for writer, director, and lead actor Rachel Sweeney’s tour de force performance.
