Here's an idea that might get you started, based on a trick I've used in animating water and air flow directly in Windows (with C++ programming.) Set up a river as a "conveyor belt" or "caterpillar tread" made of many thin rectangular segments, with only the top side of the "belt" visible. (The backward-moving return happens below the visible screen.) Use Python to alter the height of each segment, using sinusoidal and random values added together, and also to move the belt steadily forward.
