A RIVER BELOW captures the Amazon in all its complexity as it examines the actions of environmental activists using the media in an age where truth is a relative term. The film follows a reality TV star and a renowned marine biologist as they each attempt to save the Amazon pink river dolphin from being hunted to extinction. With gorgeous, sweeping aerial views we gain perspective from above, but as the film plunges deep into the murky, tangled rivers, we uncover a scandal that has no simple solution. A RIVER BELOW is a completely unexpected film - a knotty poem of duality and dissonance and a journey into ourselves as we attempt to better this world.

Movie Reviews

Village Voice - 10/10 by Serena DonadoniThe intoxicating A River Below contains elements of immersive nature documentaries and shocking wildlife exposes (like Blackfish and The Cove), but director Mark Grieco’s profile of two driven conservationists tells a more slippery tale.
Screen International - 9/10 by Allan HunterDirector Mark Grieco grabs our attention by going beyond the obvious. Exploring the consequences of well-intentioned actions and providing a sense of the much bigger picture transforms A River Below into an unexpectedly compelling proposition.
The Film Stage - 8/10 by John FinkUnintentionally timely, A River Below may be read as a Trump-era document, a tale of environmentalists versus local industry.
The New York Times - 8/10 by Ken JaworowskiThe truth turns into a tangled mess in A River Below, a bold and urgent documentary whose seemingly straightforward story quickly runs awry.
The Young Folks - 8/10 by Nathanael HoodThere are plenty of documentaries about activism. But documentaries about the consequences of activism are few and far between. Of these, Mark Grieco's A River Below is one of the best in recent memory.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Michael RechtshaffenVividly photographed by René Diaz and adroitly edited by Dan Swietlik, A River Below skillfully — and quite compellingly — navigates the murky complexities of contemporary reality filmmaking.
SSG Syndicate - 7/10 by Susan GrangerChallenging, provocative and fascinating as it questions how media activism affects social change.
Variety - 7/10 by Nick SchagerIn the stories of both men, Grieco’s film highlights the double-edged nature of eye-opening visuals, which are just as apt to enrage others and endanger the messenger as they are to achieve noble ends.
Paste Magazine - 7/10 by Jacob OllerA River Below is pure investigative journalism.
Hammer to Nail - 7/10 by Christopher Llewellyn ReedBearing witness to the torture and/or killing of ... animals is a particularly oppressive task, yet must be done.
