Somersaulter-Moats and Somersaulter's first independently produced film is a surreal meditation on a childhood phobia. At once humorous, playful and twistedly obsessive, The Silverfish King follows a narrator as he describes an early fascination with a cartoon character that morphed into an irrational fixation. Following the twists and turns of logic and accompanied by idiosyncratic doodles, The Silverfish King is reminiscent of the stories of Gogol, Poe and Kafka.
Directed by J.P. Somersaulter
