Waterwalk, starring Hollywood actor Robert Cicchini, is now streaming! In this modern exploration, Steven Faulkner and his 16-year-old son Justin embark an on a 1,000 mile route through the heart of American wilderness. They follow the path—tired, hungry, and often lost—that French explorers Marquette and Joliet did when discovering the Mississippi River in 1673. On a journey over 300 years old, from the shore of Lake Michigan all the way to St. Louis, the father and son duo take the chance to reconnect with nature, and each other, as they paddle through the pristine beauty, isolated from everyday life. "Something in us," says Faulkner, "longs to go the way of the river, to lie down on those silken currents and swing away from the bank and move along mile after mile. There's something there that's wild and strong and asleep in mystery... And all the while, rivers spoke to us in unfamiliar languages, the winds warned us of unheeded perils, statues came alive and shared their stories, and a father and son tried to learn the language of friendship and interdependence."
