Water Films 4 - The River Runner
This powerful story of resilience and redemption follows expedition kayaker Scott Lindgren's twenty-year quest to become the first person to paddle the four great rivers that flow from Tibet's sacred Mt. Kailash. Through Lindgren's rise from street-smart hoodlum to pioneering filmmaker, the hard-nosed explorer grapples with trauma, addiction, and a brain tumor to discover that he can only achieve his ultimate goal by learning to open his heart.
