Marlin

Marlin!

After losing his wife and family to the ocean, Marlin is left alone to raise his only surviving child, Nemo. Marlin struggles to let go of Nemo when he first goes to school as he is extremely worried that he could loose him at any point. Although Marlin is a very caring father towards Nemo he can also in some cases be very impatient and short tempered with him - but this is only because he cares for him so much. When Nemo is taken my divers, Marlin begins to panic as he doesn't want Nemo to be taken from him forever, so he feels as if he has to risk everything just to find him. He has to build up enough courage to be able to search the depths of the ocean to find his son.  

Whilst Marlin is on his journey trying to find Nemo he meets another fish called 'Dory'. To begin with Marlin doesn't understand Dory but as the film progresses he begins to understand her. Despite the fact he can get easily annoyed at her he sticks with her at all times and they both keep each other company.

Eventually when Marlin finds Nemo he is much happier but he also seems to trust Nemo a bit more. Also their relationship has become much stronger and they were much happier together.
