River of Surprise
This whole world seems to be spinning out of control: No matter where we are, the world seems to spin around us. The gyro always turns. And it's getting faster and faster – to the point where we can almost lose consciousness. We hurry from one appointment to the next, work like machines and at the end of the day we hardly notice anything anymore. Burnout, anxiousness and depression are the new hallmark of people everywhere.
This film shows that there is a way out and actually it's so easy. Join me on my journey on the Mekong river and see how I found my peace of mind there.
