The 2Rivers Festival has partnered with Water Docs to bring 2 films. 

On Wednesday January 31, take a night off and join us in watching these inspiring films about why we love rivers so much.

The Canoe
CANADA | 2017 | 27 min
Filmmaker: Goh Iromoto
Trailer: https://vimeo.com/198960220

“If it is love that binds people to places in this nation of rivers and in this river of nations, then one enduring expression of that simple truth is surely the canoe.”– James Raffan

This film captures the bond between human and nature created by Canada’s well-known watercraft and water symbol – the canoe. Through the stories of five canoeists paddling through different parts of Ontario, the film – gorgeously lyrical in visual composition and narration – underscores the strength of the human spirit and how the canoe can be a vessel for creating deep and meaningful connection.

The Peel Project
CANADA | 2016 | 67 min
Filmmakers: Anthony Wallace & Calder Cheverie
Trailer: https://vimeo.com/146681936
