Liu () comes from Sichuan and now lives in a basement in Beijing. Her job is to take care of an Asian female elephant named Sakuan in the zoo. Liu's parents divorced in their early years. Her mother is so worried about her daughter's marriage that she always calls to urge her to get married. She had to date one man after another. Xiaoling (Shi Shi) sells her own clothes in a shopping mall and has a boyfriend who lives together. One day, Liu came to Xiaoling's booth and wanted to see a dress. Two strange women hit it off and started dating. Xiaoling broke off contact with her boyfriend and moved in with Liu. Two people are inseparable. Liu's mother came to Beijing from Sichuan to personally supervise her daughter's blind date. Liu's girlfriend (Zhang Qianqian), who suddenly disappeared, suddenly appeared again. She told Liu that she robbed a bank and was wanted by the police. Liu hid her in his duty room. Only after the police came to investigate did Liu know that he had not robbed the bank. She killed her father because he cheated her. Then a lot of things happened. Mother Liu quietly fell in love with the blind date Mr. Zhang. Xiaoling misunderstood the relationship between Liu He and angrily returned to her boyfriend. Xiao Qun confessed to his mother that he was les, and her mother objected because she didn't understand. Jun Jun was found by the police and killed for resisting arrest. Finally made up with Xiaoling, and Liu's mother understood her daughter? .

She is like a goldfish constantly looking for her happiness in a fish tank, waiting for the arrival of true love.

Si Tong plays Xiaoling Xiao Qun's lover, who meets Xiao Qun in the clothing market, falls in love and lives together quickly. Her life is like a fish swimming in a fish tank, muddleheaded and aimless. Jealousy arose because a small group helped his ex-girlfriend Jun Jun.

Behind-the-scenes tidbits This film is the first feature film made by Li Yu, and it is also the first feature film about lesbian life in Chinese mainland? . In order to make this film, Li Yu sold the house and borrowed another 200,000 yuan. However, Li Yu didn't know there was a film censorship system. As a result, the film was banned from being shown in China? . The two heroines and Shi in the film are also gay in their lives. Originally, Pan Yi didn't want to play, because the stone threatened to break up, so she had to agree. However, after the film was finished, the two broke up. . The film is all played by non-professional actors, and there is no script in advance. Before filming Xiao Qun's blind date with a strange man, the director didn't tell the actor that Xiao Qun was gay, so when the actor heard the line "Actually, I like women", he was speechless for a moment? . When the Venice Film Festival was screened for judges and film critics for the first time this summer, Li Yu found that the sixth copy of the film was missing, which made her almost give up the competition. Later, a combination of copying and video projection was adopted to make the film complete? . Li Yu, the director with the background of behind-the-scenes production and creation, began to get in touch with lesbian people when filming a documentary on CCTV's Living Space. She pays attention to their lives and tries to show this state of life. However, in the process of filming the documentary, she felt that the documentary might invade other people's privacy, so she decided to present it by telling stories. Most of the storyline of this film also comes from the lesbians that Li Yu knows? .

The title of the film comes from the English name of the film "Fish and Elephant", that is, "Fish and Elephant" is what the director really wants. She believes that elephants are huge and will resist when they are angry, while fish can only exist passively and depend on the environment given by others. Two kinds of animals symbolize two lifestyles. Fish symbolizes Xiaoling. She is like a fish swimming in the society. She has no goal and is at a loss. She wanted to find what she wanted, but she couldn't find it, which was very painful. Elephants, like Jun Jun, are very angry. They are trapped in cages and want to rush out? .

However, when shooting Xiaoling's clothing booth in the clothing city, the security guard came over and asked them what they were shooting. When they heard the title of Fish and Elephant, they were very curious and wanted to see the script. Director Li Yu changed her mind and said that it was being filmed this summer. It was a story about the police catching bad guys. After this incident, Li Yu felt that fish and elephants were a bit strange. In order to reduce the trouble, she changed the movie to this summer. It's not interesting, is it? .

The film's evaluation of the film's image style is quite documentary, and the editing leaves a deep impression. However, quite dull pictures often jump together, so there will be a sense of alienation under normal conditions, and the smooth rhythm space of the film retains the gap of imagination. This makes the film unrealistic. The director expressed the tearing state in a fluent way. This is a very neat film, with clear and reasonable structure, but fortunately, it retains detailed and rich feelings in details, and is not melodramatic and humorous. As a gay film shot by non-homosexuals, the film expresses considerable understanding and sympathy, and it is not empty. (Comments by Hunan Literature and Art Publishing House)
