Go Fish Pictures was an American film production and distribution company and a division of DreamWorks SKG.[1] It was founded in 2000 to produce and release arthouse, independent, and foreign films. The division experienced success with the anime films Millennium Actress[1] and Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence in 2003 and 2004 respectively, which led them to venture into releasing live-action films with the release of The Chumscrubber and The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio.

However, The Chumscrubber was a commercial and critical failure, which led DreamWorks to shut down the division in 2007 shortly after the release of Japanese film Casshern.
