Little Fish (2005) - Synopsis

"I swim, I work, I sleep" - Tracy Heart

How do you learn to love again when the pain of the past won't let you go? When you're 32 with a troubled history and a doubtful future, it’s a question that isn't so easy to answer. And for Tracy Heart, it's a question she can no longer ignore.

After four years of treading water and redeeming herself in the eyes of her hard-working single mother, she has set herself the humble goal of owning her own business.

But the unexpected return of her ex-boyfriend Jonny, the criminal aspirations of her brother Ray and the emotional draw of troubled family friend and ex-football star Lionel Dawson creates friction for Tracy. Her dream soon becomes tangled with criminal boss Bradley "The Jockey" Thompson, with shattering consequences…
