The Whale is the story of Charlie [Brendan Fraser in an unforgettable and moving performance], an English teacher who lives enclosed at home due to his morbid obesity condition, and who, in a redemptive attempt, tries to reconnect with his teenage daughter. 


"This story allows us to step into the shoes of a man we would never even comprehend, and reminds us that the possibility of redemption and love is present in each one of us. For me, that's the power of cinema" Aronofsky said.
