Internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou and his crew (Team Zissou) set sail on an expedition to hunt down the mysterious, elusive, possibly non-existent Jaguar Shark that killed Zissou’s partner, Estaban, during the documentary filming of their latest adventure. They are joined on their voyage by a young airline co-pilot who may or may not be Zissou’s son, a beautiful journalist assigned to write a profile of Zissou, and Zissou’s estranged wife and co-producer Eleanor. One of Anderson’s most fanciful and iconic films, combining stop-motion and life action, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou demonstrates once again his aptitude at handling ensemble casts.

The Life Aquatic is visually quirky, funny, and ultimately the most heartfelt of Wes Anderson’s films. Everything from the claymation animals to the Portuguese-language covers of Bowie songs, the comedy to the melancholy are all melded into a unforgettable cinema experience. It’s a very easy film to love.
