A River Below (2017)
Oscar
14 May 2018 - 4 out of 5 users found this review helpful.
Honored at many of the World's best festivals, ARB should have been nominated for an Oscar. Fascinating, intelligent, beautiful doc shot subject to what appear to be unimaginable logistics and danger. A probing drama offering unique access to largely unknown struggles to save Amazon river dolphins and an unexpected confrontation of corruption related to the Amazon and conservation in general. Add an investigation of Machiavellian manipulation of images in media and the film provides a magic brew of story elements. The "anti-hero" is an unforgettable character. A real tour de force. Excellent.
