My Name is Water

My Name Is Water is a documentary that leads us around the globe in search of a deeper understanding of ourselves. Told through the eyes of filmmaker Justin Arana, this film documents his personal journey to answer the echoing call of his Holocaust surviving grandfather's question.

Without a true answer for his grandfather, Justin first travels to Darfur, where he is imprisoned over false charges of Crimes Against State, and faces possible execution. He returns home invigorated that he survived, however loses perspective and falls into his own darkness.

He decides to embark on a lengthy journey of self-discovery, re-evaluation and reflection. He ventures through New Zealand, Indonesia, the Himalayas, the Sahara and eventually Mozambique in search of meaning through adventure, interaction and observing the human condition.
