but when she jumped off the cliff, what is it that she realized when she saw the fish crawling out of the water? Some grand lesson about biology and life? Or did she die and that was her death dream?
shareI found this:
The very last scene in the movie shows Ella on a rock in a body of water. She slowly opens her eyes and witnesses a slimy fish with tiny legs crawling out of the sea. This is a callback to something Ella’s father said, before she killed him, when he was describing his near-death experience: “I saw them all, the whole family line, even the fish that crawled out of the sea.”
