Meet DJARARA: Brooklyn's own Haitian rara band

The Other Side of the Water is a documentary on DJARARA--a Brooklyn-based rara band--directed by Jeremy Robins and co-produced by Robins with Magali (Magi) Damas.

The Other Side of the Water follows a group of young immigrants who take an ancient music from the hills of Haiti and reinvent it on the streets of Brooklyn. The journey of this unlikely band offers a unique insight into the Haitian-American experience -- a rare glimpse into a world of music, spirituality, and cultural activism.
