It is an intelligent translation of a complex book to the cinema, because while the book can transfer the protagonist's thoughts, the film adopts a more detached position. The character's ambivalence is one of the keys to the excellence of this story. The fish in the title represents his kind side, his ability to empathize with a living being. The girl, however, is the temptation, access to a forbidden desire.

There is something of Frankenstein in the lake scene, conveying at the same time a feeling of empathy, but also a constant threat. The film manages to introduce us to the psychology of a difficult character (the work of the actor Tijmen Govaerts is also splendid) without the need to verbalize too much, just with a subtle look.
