Legendary Film~
ONLY THE RIVER KNOWS
—watch the trailer—
In 1988 one of the most iconic fly fishers of our time, Lars Lenth, spent three months exploring the legendary Lethe River on New Zealand's wild & wondrous South Island — fishing for its abnormally large trout. At night, he would sit down in a remote cabin and write down his experiences in a detailed journal. Nearly 25 years later, the young trout bum Rolf Nylinder loses his way in the wilderness near Lethe. By chance, he finds the long-lost journal, full of insights about the very soul of fly fishing. Along with Rolf on the trip is documentarist Peter Christensen, filming their mostly failed attempts to catch trout, and Rolf's ever-growing obsession of the journal. The entire journal of Lars Lenth has been reconstructed by an extensive and ambitious team of cinematographers and crew members.
