When novelist and experienced hiker Simon Cleary sets off to follow the course of the river that has so influenced his life he hopes that by walking its banks - from its source to where it empties into the bay - he will better understand the power and impact of this immense waterway on the environment and communities which rely on it. Cleary's ambitious journey explores the ways rivers connect landscapes ecologies histories communities and myth. But his trek along the unpredictable and magnificent Brisbane River threatens to be cut short by one of the wettest autumn months on record. Over four eventful weeks and 344 kilometres we are witness to the river in all its beauty and fury. EVERYTHING IS WATER is an inspiring pilgrimage that invites us to connect with nature and also to navigate our own path.
