(15) Andrea Arnold | UK | 2009 | 123’ | Cast | Awards
Newcomer Katie Jarvis excels as Mia, a tricky 15-year-old who has just one interest in life: urban dance. But the moves she practices are moody, introverted and subdued, rather like the dancer herself. One hot summer’s day her dysfunctional mother brings home a handsome stranger called Connor (Michael Fassbender) who promises to change everything and bring love into all their lives – but are things more complicated than they seem?. Powerfully acted, laugh out loud funny and profoundly moving, Fish Tank is film making of the highest calibre.
Mae Mia yn ferch anodd, 15 mlwydd oed, sydd ag ond un peth ar ei meddwl: dawns urban. Mae pethau’n newid gyda dyfodiad Connor, sy’n addo newid popeth, ond ydyw pethau’n fwy cymhleth na’r olwg gyntaf? Mae Fish Tank yn ddoniol, ac yn drawiadol a theimladwy iawn – dyma wneud ffilmiau o’r radd flaenaf.
“With a terrific performance by debutant Katie Jarvis, this gritty Essex drama shows that director Andrea Arnold is Ken Loach’s natural successor.” The Guardian
