School of Fish is a poetic, gentle, and engaged wall projection project.
School of Fish is a 5-minute architectural projection featuring Plink, a little goldfish. This fantastic tale was custom-made for the StaroRiga festival and inspired by Latvia's singing revolution in 1988.
Synopsis
The little goldfish Plink plays in the depths of the ocean. Together with his community, he learned to master the art of making music with unusual instruments made from objects found at the bottom of the ocean. One day, a heartless developer attacks his community to pillage their resources. How will they react to preserve their little underwater realm? How will the power of sound become their most precious weapon?
School of Fish was created for and with the participation of Staro Riga, the Riga Light Festival (Latvia), in 2014. It has since been presented in 2017 at Illuminart on the Cégep du Vieux Montréal. It is a short film that is at once very poetic, gentle, committed, and family-friendly.
