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. He's happy there, but a messenger arrives to bring him to Arizona for his uncle's wedding. It's a ruse to get Axel into the family business. In Arizona, Axel meets two odd women: vivacious, needy, and plagued by neuroses and familial discord. He gets romantically involved with one, while the other, rich but depressed, plays accordion tunes to a gaggle of pet turtles.
Editor's Verdict
"The provided plot summary for 'Arizona Dream' contains absolutely no reference to Christmas, holiday settings, traditions, or associated themes. The film appears to be a surreal drama/romance centered around a fish, a family business, and unusual romantic entanglements in the Arizona desert."
