The American government sends a crew of explorers down a river to name and claim things that aren’t theirs to own — and they soon hit rough waters. Riffing on the history of an 1869 expedition through the Grand Canyon and played by a cast of people the first journey left out, Men on Boats is a raucous adventure that questions our mixed-up myths of masculinity and Manifest Destiny.
