New Digital Restoration • Co-writer and Star Guinevere Turner in Person!

Shot on black and white 16mm and prototypically indie with its DIY aesthetic, use of mostly non-actors, and focus on community and authenticity, GO FISH was, nonetheless, a breakthrough arthouse release upon its release and was a major part of the queer film revolution of the 1990s. This staple of Brattle programming stars Guinevere Turner as a beautiful, hip young woman whose well-meaning roommate sets her up with the seemingly mismatched Ely (Brodie), an older bohemian who initially doesn’t seem to be her type.

GO FISH has been digitally restored by the Academy Film Archive and UCLA Film & Television Archive in conjunction with Sundance Institute. Funding provided by Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Amazon MGM Studios, Frameline, Sundance Institute, and UCLA Film & Television Archive
