An exciting Japanese high-tension thriller, chosen for his year's CPH PIX festival in Copenhagen. 'Cold Fish' is the long-awaited serial murder drama by this Japanese original about two tropical fish dealers. Shamoto runs a small, somewhat shabby shop together with his wife and a stepdaughter who hates him. He is a walking self-excuse, and even his wife rejects each of his pathetic approaches. But a fateful coincidence causes him to meet the rich and successful fish dealer Murata. He is a manic psychopath and a tempting devil, with a fantastic ability to coax people into depravity. He hires Shamoto and trains him in the noble art of murdering people and getting rid of their bodies. But everything comes at a price, and soon Shamoto has to ask himself if he is the hammer or the nail. 'Cold Fish' is as extremely revolting as it is terribly beautiful!
