    • Synopsis
    • A steamer built from scratch, all 3,730 kilometers of the Mississippi river and two European artists in the heart of the United States. In this documentary, Maxime Berthou and Mark Pozlep are taking us along on the three-month journey along the mythical river they took in 2019. We see the people they met and the brutal nature of everyday life in the towns along the Mississippi. Communities ravaged by poverty, bad health caused by toxic industrial pollution, and racial inequality. But we also witness the strength of individuals trying to give meaning to their lives for others.
