 “We're all a pack of strays - don't you get it?” - Steve Zissou
In his fourth and most ambitious film to date, director Wes Anderson sets out on a high-seas adventure comedy, spinning the tale of a washed-up oceanographer (Academy Award nominee Bill Murray) in search of love, revenge and a drop of redemption in his ultimate aquatic quest. Plying the waters as only Anderson could, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou embarks on a journey into a realm of pirates, islands and deadly jaguar sharks-and into a maelstrom of human yearning set adrift.
Meet Steve Zissou: legendary underwater explorer, notorious blow-hard, and a man known around the globe for his documentaries about the teeming life beneath the deep blue sea. These days, however, life on land isn't going so smoothly for Zissou. His best friend and long-time partner, Esteban, was recently consumed by a ravenous jaguar shark.
Rumors are starting to spread that he's losing his touch. And now, out of the blue, comes a genuine Southern gentleman and Air Kentucky co-pilot named Ned Plimpton (Owen Wilson) who claims he might, or might not, be the long-lost son Steve never got to know.
