' A Hybrid Documentary/Fiction set in the jungles of Borneo, telling the story of an Iban father who undertakes an arduous and increasingly mystical river journey to find help for his sick son. The story was devised and filmed over a 4 month period working closely with one up-river Iban Longhouse community who comprised the film's cast and crew. The film has been funded by The British Documentary Foundation, the UK Film Council/ John Brabourne Awards and Screen South, under the creative guidance of Pawel Pawlikowski and The National Film &TV School.—Anonymous
