Run to the Source
This documentary follows runner Martin Johnson as he attempts a record along the 184-mile Thames Path while tracing the deep links between Black British history and the River Thames. Running from the Thames Barrier toward the river's source, he uses the journey to uncover stories rarely told about the waterway. The film blends endurance sport with a personal exploration of identity, memory and place. It is a fresh and moving take on history in motion. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
