I love this film. Believe it or not, this is just what life is like in many lower/working class homes -epecially in certain coastal towns and villages in the UK. The _Fishyman_ could be anybody who doesn't quite "fit in", be it an issue of race, gender identity, sexuality, religious affiliation, appearance.... Everyone needs to be wanted and hopes to be loved-Everyone wants to be needed and experience love.There's no shame in finding those things with somebody a little different _even fishy!!_
