Upstream (2016)
Up the river
7 May 2017
Warning: Spoilers
A rather sensitive adventure drama, the tale of two half brothers - with only the same dad - who meet in order to seek how and why their old man died in ex Yougoslavia. They only know he was mysteriously shot in the mountain, near Zagreb. So then begins a sort of initiatic journey for both of them, who will slowly discover each other, more than finding how their father actually died, although they will finally know.

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS But the irony is that they will find out that their father was just a SOB, a brutal asshole who did certainly not deserve to be sought as he was by his boys. Yes, this is a touching story, very beautifully made, with from time to time some DELIVERANCE tributes.
