OFFICIAL TRAILER RELEASE
Los ríos - Documentary 75 min
Directed by Ryan Fyfe-Brown and Dale Bailey
A determined Honduran mother and her three daughters are swept into the currents of the contentious migrant caravan as it pushes relentlessly toward safety, opportunity, and the United States.
Leaving behind all their possessions and fleeing the violence and poverty that grip much of Central America, Joanna follows the same path her estranged mother traveled years before. Like drops of water in a river, the family moves through Mexico with the caravan—an immense group of up to 7,000 migrants that has further polarized political debate in the U.S.
Los ríos invites us to reflect on modern migration, human rights, and our own role as consumers of media.
At the core, we witness firsthand that there is no limit to what a mother will do for the safety and future of her children
This track as well as the entire soundtrack was created by the sweet man from Saskatoon @willquiring
And the audio was engineered and mixed and mastered by @banjoviking Erik Arnesen with additional mixing by Jesse Nakano and @oldsawstudio
Thank you to Josh and Mauro (@gardenfilmstudio and @fidelio.films) for helping get this project to this stage and all the things to come.
Thank you @jvlie_of_earth for a killer logo design and to Ashleigh and all the wonderful people at @canfilmfest
We can’t wait to have our world premiere March 29 at 5pm at the SCOTIABANK theatre in Toronto.

Thank you Sebas and Dani we love you very much @seabasortega @danielatapiaa
Tomorrow you’re going to be fighting for that screen time as we are dropping the OFFICIAL TRAILER TO Los ríos! Pictured here is Dale hanging in a stadium that was set up as a massive refuge in Mexico City where they were able to rest a few days. I think one of them stole my blanket that night.
Keep your eyeballs up! @canfilmfest #cff2026 #losriosfilm #migrantcaravan
Get your tickets to the @canfilmfest and come see the first ever screening!
In 2018 we spent 2 months walking with the migrant caravan as they tried avoiding Mexican authorities and human traffickers. Strength in numbers and increased world news coverage helped keep them safe.

Kids will be kids. Kids will endure possibly the greatest hardship of their life but still find time to play and enjoy the thrill of riding in the back of a truck. #losriosfilm #migrantcaravan #cff
We are pleased to announce that Los ríos will be having its WORLD PREMIERE at the Canadian Film Festival in Toronto on March 29th at 5pm!!
“A determined Honduran mother and her three daughters are swept into the currents of the contentious migrant caravan as it pushes relentlessly toward safety, opportunity, and the United States.”
Gosh it has taken a lot to get here, and I am truly honoured and proud to have my first film festival screening. This wouldn’t have been possible without the wonderful help from Josh Huculiak @gardenfilmstudio and Mauro Mueller @fidelio.films and can’t be more proud of Will Quiring @willquiring and his incredible soundtrack that he has provided for this film.
Mass migration has been seen around the world for decades and unfortunately is an issue that is not going anywhere anytime soon. We were lucky enough to follow a family, much like yours, as they endure a difficult journey like so many before them and so many will again as they seek safety and security. Unfortunately this documentary is more timely than ever, in the world, the United States and even here in Alberta as we see increased harmful messaging towards new immigrants. I hope this film can shed some light on what someone goes through as they try to make it towards safety in the global North.
There are so many people that have helped get this passion project to where it is now and Ryan and I cannot be more grateful.
Thank you CFF @canfilmfest for having us, I cannot wait to see this on the big screen later this month! See you soon Toronto!
