Son of the River

About This Movie

So, 'Son of the River' is this intriguing drama from 1999 that floats in and out of reality like the Danube it features. The film explores this young couple, caught in the ebbs and flows of their relationship, as they seek some kind of divine truth out in the waters. It's all about that sense of renewal and how love can cleanse you, you know?
