The Current

Nurt
dir. Rafał Skalski/Poland/2026/83 min

1985. Eleven adventurers set out on the first-ever attempt to descend the Amazon - from its source to the Atlantic Ocean. What begins as a final rite of passage before adulthood quickly turns into a test far beyond anything they anticipated. As the expedition unfolds, it becomes clear that the greatest challenge is not the untamed river but the volatile mix of emotions, conflicts, and a relentless struggle for leadership.

Four decades later, the participants look back on this pioneering journey, confronting their memories and asking a question: what is more unpredictable - nature or people?
