Little Fish

Drama - Ex-druggie (Cate Blanchett) tries to sort out her life and go straight. She runs a video shop wanting to expand but is turned down a business loan from the bank. Her druggie boyfriend is back in town and her step dad is very sick coming down from heroin. Lots of conflict with mom at home and a brother who is just getting into selling drugs - such a dysfunctional family. Powerful performances but I wondered what this movie was really trying to show (other than confusion)...
