In it, a woman picks up a stray fish, suggesting that she would accept any change from her present situation. Her husband then kills himself after learning of her affair. Realizing her mistake, the woman understands that there is no pleasure in being unfaithful. She knows that she would rather be with him than anyone else.
The water in the tanks seems to represent the person's will to live, or 'life force,' as the heroine dies when she tips her head and loses her water. The fish could also represent the people in their lives as the goldfish the woman picks up seems to represent the man she is cheating on her husband with.
It is also believed that the fish could represent the number of times one has had sex. When the woman finds the fish on the ground and adds it to her tank, it could represent that she had an affair. When her husband sees that she has an extra fish in her bowl, he kills himself. The video displays the progression of infidelity. At the wedding the husband has one fish in his tank, the girl has none. The snapshots of their lives accelerate and in every following frame, the number of goldfish increases.
