Internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) and his crew, Team Zissou, set sail on an expedition to hunt down the mysterious, elusive, possibly nonexistent Jaguar Shark that killed Zissou’s partner during the documentary filming of their latest adventure. They are joined on their voyage by a young airline copilot (Owen Wilson), a pregnant journalist (Cate Blanchett), and Zissou’s estranged wife (Anjelica Huston). Wes Anderson has assembled an all-star cast that also includes Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Michael Gambon, Noah Taylor, Seu Jorge, and Bud Cort for this wildly original adventure-comedy. - Film Biography, The Criterion Collection


About Our Season - “Wes Days”

Deptford Cinema is proud to present a year-long season celebrating the work of auteur filmmaker Wes Anderson - called Wes Days. With his incomparable aesthetic vision and offbeat sense of humour, Anderson is one of cinema's quirkiest filmmakers. Known for his witty dialogue and exquisitely decorated sets, he first received attention for his 1998 film Rushmore and his 2001 film The Royal Tenenbaums. He then went on to garner wider audiences for such films as The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004), The Darjeeling Limited (2007), and The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014).

Preceding most films in the season will be either a short film or commercial directed by Wes Anderson.
