“Little Fish” is a heartbreaking, emotionally draining, end of days love story. The World is in the midst of a pandemic, but this neuroinflammatory affliction takes something more from people than just their lives, it destroys memory. Much like Alzheimer’s disease, if NIA is contracted  memories are erased, leaving the ones you love unaware of who you are or where they live.    “ Little Fish” Follows newlywed’s Jude ( Jack O’Connell ) and Emma ( Olivia Cooke ) along with their best friends Ben ( Raul Castillo ) and Samantha ( Soko ) as they are given devastating news. The microcosmic focus on the two couples is extremely effective. Well aware of World events unfolding around them, Plane crashes, car crashes, people going missing “Little Fish” just centres on the two couples as they battle to save their relationships as the pandemic takes its toll on both couples. As the narrative in “Little Fish” jumps timelines showing before and after NIA the deterioration in memory, particularly Jude, becomes emotionally devastating. Can someone who was so in love not remember anything of their partner or can their partner continue loving someone who is a shadow of their former self?  A beautiful , gut punch of a movie.
