White Water Summer is a drama movie directed by Jeff Bleckner that was released in 1987, but mostly filmed two years earlier. The action of the film is framed by commentary from the now older character of Alan (Sean Astin), as he remembers a past camping trip led by Vic (Kevin Bacon). The narration was filmed two years after the rest of the film and Astin is noticeably older.

[edit] Plot

School is out for the summer, and a group of young teenagers go on a hike with an experienced guide named Vic. One of the teens—named Alan—butts head with Vic during the film as Vic's attempts to teach life lessons annoy Alan. The more defiant Alan gets, the more extreme the lessons come from Vic. Alan's defiance and Vic's aggressive lessons culminate in disaster and Vic winds up breaking his leg. Alan then has to use his skills and some of Vic's to get down from the mountain.
