In the aftermath of war, a father will search for peace. Inspired by true events, Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe makes his directorial debut with this epic and inspiring tale of one man's life-changing journey of discovery. Crowe also stars as an Australian farmer who goes in search of his three missing sons, last known to have fought against the Turks in the bloody World War I Battle of Gallipoli. Arriving in Istanbul, he is thrust into a vastly different world, where he encounters others who have suffered their own losses in the conflict. With seemingly insurmountable obstacles in his path, he must travel cross the battle-scarred landscape to find the truth...and his own peace.

Critics Consensus: The Water Diviner finds Russell Crowe on somewhat uncertain footing as a director, but he's rescued by a strong performance from himself in the leading role.

Reviews

Keith & the Movies

Keith Garlington

Crowe should be commended for giving the film a grand, near epic look and feel despite having a less than epic budget.

Every Movie Has a Lesson

Don Shanahan

Crowe's film isn't gaudy war glorification towards a happy ending. This film is the acknowledgement of shared experience and shared loss between strangers that is tremendously noble, even with the sometimes over-dramatized story.

Richard Crouse

A sweeping historical drama about one man; a personal story set against a huge backdrop that studies a father's sorrow and a nation's tribulations.

While Crowe the actor has impressive screen presence and conveys grief with subtlety, Crowe the director errs on the side of caution in this conservatively directed feature, which splutters along...

Successfully navigating war, drama, action and romance, this film has it all on both sides of the camera.
