 Book of Fishes is a surrealist post-apocalyptic story following a young married couple, Jaiden (Luigi Bianchi) and Aliyah (Rowan Benz) who have just returned from an anniversary dinner at the local black market. Jaiden has traded a precious family Heirloom in exchange for an exotic anniversary gift, the last fish on Earth. In their last moments together, awaiting a violent confrontation from a disgruntled mob, they are forced to face the ugly, murky underbelly of their relationship.
