My Lanka takes a unique look at cultural impostor syndrome through the eyes of filmmaker Heather Dirckze as she explores her Sri Lankan heritage. Heather grew up in Canada, with little influence of Sri Lankan culture in her life, leaving her wondering what it means to be South Asian and if she even identifies as Sri Lankan. In this warm and personal documentary series, Heather embarks upon a journey to Sri Lanka to experience its rich history and traditions, tracing her family back several centuries and visiting key sites. The journey follows three important aspects: identity, culture, and family. Throughout the series, Heather learns from different people what it means to have a cultural identity, and the multifaceted nature of identifying with a certain culture. She navigates Sri Lankan culture by trying to cook curries and roti, learning Kandyan dance, and experiencing everyday life on the island. She connects with family though discovering her family tree, and meeting with members of both sides of her father's family. Through the experience, Sri Lankan history unfolds as Heather learns about the histories of both Dutch Burghers and Sinhalese people in Sri Lanka. A question is asked about the differences between these two identities which Heather must grow to understand in order to connect all the pieces together. Experience the beauty of the country for the first time alongside her as she answers the question of whether embracing our heritage affects our cultural identity and sense of belonging, or whether she leaves Sri Lanka still feeling like a tourist.
