In her debut short film, writer and director Emily May Jampel stages the perfect meet-cute between two Asian-American teenagers who share a similar distaste for their respective families’ expectations about who they should be. In Lucky Fish, Lukita Maxwell (AppleTV+'s Shrinking, HBOMax’s Genera+ion) stars as Maggie, a young girl aspiring to attend Sarah Lawrence a.k.a. “the lesbian art school?” who tries to dissociate during a dinner with overbearing adults at a Chinese restaurant. In the bathroom, Maggie encounters Celine (Anna Mikami from The Map of Tiny Perfect Things, Birds of Prey) who leads her into a room with a fish tank - a dreamy, almost-forgotten world where anything seems possible.

Jampel meticulously invokes nostalgia for liminal spaces à la 90s teen romances like Romeo + Juliet.
