Synopsis

Summertime, 1994. Trevor, a young teen living in a quiet mining village near Doncaster, hears rumours of a giant carp that lives in the nearby ponds. After spending a night staking out the area, he decides to bring his friends and family together on a fishing expedition to catch the legendary creature. United by a singular mission and stoked by the rumblings of political fever throughout the nation, Trevor and his compatriots each overcome their individual struggles in search of an impossible, fish-shaped dream. Full of heart and authenticity, Pond Life is a film that reaffirms the importance of community and explores the values of post-industrial Britain.
