Over the course of one week in a shadowy Wellington flat, four flatmates gradually aggravate and menace each other as pressure builds over unpaid bills, a mysterious disappearance, infidelity, and unrequited sexual desire. The physical and psychological claustrophobia becomes increasingly unbearable as they begin to encroach on each other's spaces, culminating in a shocking scene of humiliation and despair.

Murmurs

As the various members of the cast and crew resume their everyday lives, the intricacies of their relationships with one another become increasingly difficult, as their conflicting needs and desires become impossible to resolve.

Kissy Kissy

Fish Out of Water manages to unfurl its light-hearted tale of young man and the sea, without a word of dialogue. Avoiding the morning traffic jams, our man (Nick Dunbar) finds peace by rowing each day to work in the city. But when a seductive blonde unexpectedly enters the picture, he finds his morning boat ride heading in unexpected directions. Directed by Lala Rolls (Land of My Ancestors), Fish Out of Water was invited to play in the 2005 NZ Film Festival, plus another 10 overseas fests. Victoria Kelly composes the brass and banjo-inflected soundtrack.
