Synopsis

Who is Steve Zissou? In this highly original comedy, he's a famous documentary filmmaker specialising in undersea adventures, alternately grumpy and madly enthusiastic. Along the way he has to deal with the death of his best friend (killed by a rare shark), the arrival of a young man claiming to be his long-lost son, and an attack from brutal pirates. Few films manage to create their own world as completely as this one does.
