Arizona Dream
An Inuit hunter races his sled home with a fresh-caught halibut. This fish pervades the entire film, in real and imaginary form. Meanwhile, Axel tags fish in New York as a naturalist's gofer.

In Arizona, Axel meets two odd women: vivacious, needy, and plagued by neuroses and familial discord.
