In 1971, after being rejected by Hollywood, Bruce Lee returned to his parents’ homeland of Hong Kong to complete four iconic films. Charting his struggles between two worlds, this intimate and timely portrait explores questions of identity and representation through the use of rare archival, interviews with loved ones and Bruce’s own writings. Be Water is an official Sundance Film Festival selection.  “An unexpectedly urgent film (GQ).”
