Shot in the Bolivian rainforest with the native Moseten, My Father in The River Juxtaposes the stories of an indigenous man who floats himself into the middle of a river to die of starvation and of an American woman who has a dream of drifting on an ocean and in the arms of her mother. The film explores the metaphors of the river - of being trapped between two realities; two cultures, and in the water that flows between.
