“Bodies of water” is a poetic memory of the filmmaker’s return to the Ganges River in India where her grandparents were cremated. It was only with her generation that daughters were included on the family tree. Was she now relevant? Impressionistic, meditative images of water are superimposed with slide guitar and tablas.
