Talented in many ways but living in a disadvantaged environment, Duma takes shelter in his canoe. Steve, meanwhile, is a former champion canoe racer that failed in his marriage. They walked completely different paths from each other but begin to overcome their differences and cooperate in order to win a gold medal, their life goal. Beyond the River is a sports movie portraying the victory of human minds in a canoe race held in the Republic of South Africa. During the three-day Dusi Canoe Marathon, allegedly the toughest canoe race in the world, the two men get close to each other while going through a series of barriers and accidents. Inspired by the real story of a gold medal team in 2014, the latter part of the film in particular is full of thrills that will make your heart pound. (Busan International Film Festival)
