A Stylist and Radio Times pick for 2026
There are women with higher callings than motherhood. And there are their daughters.
Kolia is in her twenties, caring for other people''s children and looking for a way out of London''s dead-end days. She is not looking to be pulled back into the orbit of her passionate, fiery, vulnerable mother, but she may have no choice.
In Kolia''s childhood, her mother loomed large, both saint and celebrity. Now, she will go to any lengths to repair relations with her estranged daughter.
A painful love letter to childishness, innocence and imagination, SUCKERFISH scrutinises what we really owe each other.
