Looking for an older movie

I’m looking for a movie title about a young kid who is forced to work at a campground for the summer. He finds a new friend, and they go swimming in a river one day and his friend drowns. I have not used this site before, so I’m not sure what is really needed to start a search. Thank you for any kind suggestions.

was it a kids movie? how old is it do you think? was it in english? the kid died?

Hello, I'm sorry I was not more descriptive. The movie depicted a teenage kid who was upset his parents decided to take care of a campground for the summer. This kid was shy, and friends did not come quickly. He met this other teenager and formed a nice friendship. One afternoon, they decided to swim in a river, and one teenager went underwater. The other boy found him down the river dead. At that point, the movie took on a dramatic series of events that eventually led to people attending the funeral. It was not a kid's movie; I would describe it as dramatic and emotion-filled
