“Get this plot line: married couple Keitel and Diaz are on vacation (honeymoon, maybe, canu0026#39;t remember), on a small island. Their only neighbor is Sheffer, a friend of Diaz. Along comes Zane, as Diazu0026#39;s ex-lover. He talks Diaz into letting him stay the night. The next morning when Diaz goes to check on him, heu0026#39;s dead. Cause of death is, appearantly, a heart attack. At that same moment Keitel and Sheffer are arriving on shore. She tries to hide the body, but Keitel stumbles onto it (literally). Did I mention that Keitel is a judge? He believes that the only solutions would be to dispose of the body, or possibly be charged with murder. At that point the question arises about his death. Could it have been murder? If so, letu0026#39;s look at the suspects. Diaz obviously didnu0026#39;t kill him, so that leaves the other two. Is it Keitel, the possibly jealous husband, or Sheffer? This plot has u0026quot;potentialu0026quot; written all over it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHead Above Water is a remarkable black comedy with great performances and a great script that keeps you guessing. Just when you think youu0026#39;ve found the killer, along comes some new evidence to point you in another direction. It plays great as both a Mystery and a Comedy, although the comedy is quite subtle. Anyone with a taste for mystery and comedy is in for a real surprise. Even if you arenu0026#39;t into those genreu0026#39;s, youu0026#39;ll still enjoy this great film. It would be extremely hard to dislike, because itu0026#39;s just so much fun.”
