Pisces (film)

Pisces (Hebrew: מזל דגים) is a 2023 Israeli animated[5] short film directed by Lee Dror[6][7] and written by Omer Hamawi.

The film explores themes of loss and denial, which Dror has previously inspected in her prior works,[8][9] through its protagonist, Rona, who grapples with the impact of her sister's death while navigating her unconventional life in Japan.

The narrative centers on Rona, whose life is upended when she receives a phone call from her father informing her of her sister's accidental death, a decade after she left her family in Israel.

As she struggles to process this devastating news, Rona attempts to maintain her daily routine as a member of a "family for rent".

Her efforts to deny her sister's death lead to a fracture in the fictional world she has constructed, forcing her to confront the unresolved absence in her life.
