While on a trip to scatter their father's ashes, two sisters and a brother find themselves stranded when their boat breaks down. Cut off from the outside world, they find themselves being hunted by a mysterious, faceless killer.

Following the shocks of Backrooms and Obsession, River will undoubtedly establish itself as THE defining film of 2027. Joshua Giuliano has mastered all the conventions of the survival genre and applies them with formidable effectiveness. The film’s fiercely oppressive atmosphere, its clever plot twists, and its graphically terrifying sequences turn this open-air nightmare into a visceral experience that will keep you glued to your seat.
