Strange River

Sixteen-year-old Dídac and his family are spending the summer holidays on a cycling trip along the Danube. An unexpected encounter with another boy changes the course of the journey. His enigmatic presence awakens new feelings in Dídac and disrupts his relationship with his family.

Because Strange River was inspired by its perceptive director's memories, every character exists with the strength of real life and emotions that loudly resonates with our own experience of growing up. It is an incredibly delicate and profound tribute to family, and of portraying the vocation and passion of parents who pass on life and art to their children.

Strange River contains, in our opinion, some of the most beautiful scenes ever made on the emotional availability - and lucidity - of youth.
