Plot Summary:Mojtaba Mirtahmasb's documentary tells the story of one man's touching relation to a dying river. Once a roaring waterway, the river is now only a narrow brook containing the corpses of dead animals, sewage from surrounding houses and shops, and no fish at all. In a fascinating bid to keep the memory of the river's heyday alive, artist Ahmad Nadalian carves images of fish on the stones of the river-bed, and 'The River Still has Fish' pays tribute to his creative way of drawing attention to this environmental issue.

In this situation, an artist, Dr. Ahmad Nadalian, keeps alive the memory of water and fish, by carving images of fish on the stones of the river-bed.
