"Miracle Fish" is an Australian live action short film from 7 years ago. It was written and directed by Luke Doolan and was possibly his biggest success so far as it managed to score an Academy Award nomination.
As this short film is available online I have no need to give spoilers be revealing any of the story/plot. All in all this is a great little short that will have it's lovers and haters purely because of where Luke Dolan's story takes us.
I am going to say something rather radical. Over the last several years, I've gone to the showings of both the animated and live-action short films that were Oscar nominated.
