Up The River

Leon de Levita | Netherlands, Suriname | 2024 | Dutch, Sranan Tongo | 23 min. | e.s.

Roy takes his Grandpa Benjamin up the river to visit his prodigal brother Hugo. Although Roy knows that Grandpa's memory is beginning to fail him, it is only in the dugout canoe that he realizes how advanced the dementia has become. When Grandpa tells the story of the indigenous girl Matuwi, who went into the forest to die among her beloved birds, Roy begins to realize that this is no ordinary boat trip up the river.
