Australia has had to wait a painfully long time for Andrea Arnold’s Fish Tank to arrive in local theatres, but trust us, the Jury Prize Winner from the 209 Cannes Film Festival is well worth the wait.
Fish Tank is the story of Mia (Kate Jarvis), a volatile 15-year-old, who is always in trouble and who has become excluded from school and ostracized by her friends. One hot summer’s day her mother (Kierston Wareing) brings home a mysterious stranger called Connor (Michael Fassbender – Hunger, Inglorious Bastards) who promises to change everything and bring love into all their lives.
The film will be in cinemas from 27 May and we really can recommend it highly enough. Arnold has in two short films announced herself as an major emerging auteur talent and Fish Tank will likely be one of your most memorable cinema going experiences of the year.
If you’d like to win one of 10 double passes we’re giving away all you have to do is answer this easy question:
