I've watched a lot of docs and this is one of my favorites. I won't get all into the plot as others have dissected way too thoroughly here, but if you enjoy slow, melancholy, euphoric docs then you will love this one. It's very reflective of our time and the Wendell Berry poems paired with the Album Leaf music is wonderful. Very well made. It's a real artpiece of doc cinema for it's time.

As an avid outdoorsman and river rat this is one of my favorite docs. Watched a short version of this film on alabama public television and was blown away by the cinematography and music. I later bought the dvd. Have since bought a new canoe and got back into canoeing and the same adventures of my youth.
