Story

The road movie Riverboom shows the crazy odyssey of three young war reporters in the chaos of Afghanistan shortly after the attacks of September 11, 2001.

Serge, a workaholic journalist, Paolo, a photographer who is as cheerful as he is clueless, and Claude, a morbidly cautious Swiss typographer.

Claude, who plunges into this adventure against his will, buys a video camera in the Kabul bazaar to film this crazy journey that will change his life … before he loses the tapes and finds them again twenty years later. Cheering!
