Description
For Amos Boone (David Oyelowo, who directed), a move to rural Oregon hadn't helped his small family cope with the failing health of his wife Mary (Rosario Dawson). For their impressionable 11-year-old Gunner (Lonnie Chavis), the local kids' tall tales of a forest-dwelling "water man" with magical healing powers set him into the woods on a mission of hope... and gave him a revelatory adventure. Fine family drama also stars Amiah Miller, Maria Bello, and Alfred Molina. 92 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English

Description
Touching family drama explores love, friendship, and loss. The Water Man follows young Gunner Boone (Lonnie Chavis), who's moved to a small logging town in Oregon with his mother, Mary (Rosario Dawson), and father, Amos (David Oyelowo), who recently returned from being stationed in Japan. Mary is quite sick with cancer but has kept the full truth of her diagnosis from Gunner, who spends most of his time reading and drawing a graphic novel about a ghost detective. After Gunner discovers that his mom has leukemia, he's desperate to find a way to help her beat the odds. When he hears a neighborhood girl named Jo (Amiah Miller) say that she's seen "the Water Man," Gunner's curiosity leads him to research the legend and talk about it with a local funeral director (Alfred Molina), who explains that the story is about a miner who found a special rock that brought him back to life after a flash flood killed him and his wife. He supposedly still haunts the area looking for his dead wife to resuscitate. Gunner offers Jo money if she's willing to escort him to where she last spotted the Water Man, hoping to find him and convince him to help Mary.
