Video interviews with the parents of prominent Filipino artists play mysteriously in a fish tank while live goldfish swim within. The footage appears like a reflection on the tank’s glass due to the polarized screen attached to its sides. The darting fish might be proxies for the artists. As the parents speculate about their children’s careers and successes, they create a tangential portrait of the individual filtered through the lenses of familial perception and cultural identity.
