Translation of: Fish out of water.

Twelve-year-old Fishel "Fish" Rosner doesn't like the usual "boy" things like sports. He would much rather read or do crafts than play hockey. When Fish asks his grandmother to teach him how to knit, she tells him that knitting is for girls and that he should go watch sports with his grandfather. When his mother signs him up for water polo, Fish would much rather do Zumba with the senior citizens. Fish doesn't understand why his interests are considered "girly" and why that's a bad thing. When Fish joins his school's knitting club and comes up with a project for his bar mitzvah, he finally gets the courage to confront his family and friends about their outdated ideas about gender roles.
