Mississippi - Fluss der Hoffnung (1995)
Zwei Jungen, eine tödliche Krankheit und der Zauber eines unvergesslichen Sommers: Eriks bester Freund, der elfjährige Dexter hat Aids. Als die beiden Jungen in einer Zeitung lesen, dass ein Wunderheiler in New Orleans ein Mittel gegen die Immunschwäche gefunden haben will, reißen sie von zu Hause aus. Mit einem Floß fahren sie den Mississippi hinunter, den Fluss der Hoffnung. Es ist eine Fahrt im Schatten des Todes, die den beiden das größte Geschenk des Lebens macht: Freundschaft.
