"Wet Fish"

That's a mouthful.

One of DAVID's favourite commercials is a Mini Cooper spot where a naked man is slapped in the head with a ruddy big fish. Big Red Button's new short film, 'Wet Fish', bathes in similar waters, but with more slaps and more occult trappings.

Dave (Toby Williams) is in a funk, and it will take more than lunch, a movie, or a blowjob from wife Mary (Rachel Stubbings) to shake him out of it. When she offers to slap him in the belly with a wet fish, Dave reacts as if his whole life has been leading to this moment.

Thus, Mary goes to town on Dave's stomach—whatever it takes to get the man off the bloody sofa. Yet this is no ordinary fetish, as shown by the arrival of some hooded figures and a 'birth' scene that must be seen to be believed. The earnest message that follows makes it all the funnier.
