I'm not a river, I'm the sea

A deep and stirring meditative journey into self-recognition and healing, I’m not a river, I’m the sea is a mother/son collaboration. A family history of violence and abuse is liberated through strength and will, and grief gives way to loving determination and promise. Pairing an aural mix of memoir, documentary, and personal essay with evocative, revivifying waterscapes, I’m not a river, I’m the sea co-directors and co-producers, María Isabel Muñoz and Tony Meneses, create a literary cinematic work that is at once vulnerable and fierce.
