Child of the River

Thirteen-year-old Uria goes to a Catholic boarding school on the remote Mentawai islands of Indonesia. Twice a year he returns to his home deep in the forest where his father is a sorcerer. When he arrives, Uria pits his new Christian faith and his literacy against his father's ritual invocation of the spirits.
