Newport Beach Film Festival 2008

Gill is a disgruntled orange goldfish, bitter and cynical from living in the fishbowl too long. His arch nemesis the kid, constantly annoys him and feeds him “flaky crap food.” The loneliness of his fish bowl is getting too him. He decides enough is enough and that he is going to end it all. When one day the family dog, comes to look at him, Gill jumps out hoping to be torn to pieces. It does not happen and he is “rescued” by The Kid. He tries again by pushing his entire bowl off the mantle. The bowl shatters on the floor, his gills starve for oxygen, and he wakes up in a white void. He succeeded! He is in Heaven! Then the corners of his eyes catch a sight of the woman of his dreams. This is more than he ever hoped for! Or is it?
