Chris Remi and his younger brother Tony have been complete opposites since childhood, so much so that their half-Native American grandmother gave them nicknames symbolizing their distinctive personalities. Lighthearted and carefree Tony is "Smiling Fish," and his perpetually pensive older brother Chris is called "Goat on Fire." Having lost both their parents in a car accident, Chris and Tony live together in their childhood home looking for changes in their lives.

One of those hand-made movies that sneaks into festivals and wins friends.

The title is the names their Indian grandmother gave two brothers. Except for that, it has nothing to do with the movie. It;s about relatonships, and how we handle them or mess with them. Good movie.
