Downriver Reviews
""Downriver" is the kind of graceful provocation that slips around a corner before you can pinpoint its intentions, and that keeps it arresting as both an inquiry and a character study." – L.A Times
“It's a story about redemption, manipulation and the darkness at the end of the street.” – Sydney Morning Herald
“A haunting mystery-drama, Downriver gradually layers characters and
details until we have a better picture – though never complete – of what
happened and the consequences of an unresolved crime.” – Rochelle
