Running on Empty is a raw and intimate documentary that follows one woman's radical decision to embark on a 30-day water-only fast in a last-ditch effort to reclaim control over her life. Struggling with chronic health issues, emotional trauma, and spiritual fatigue, she turns to fasting as a way to reset not just her body, but her entire being. As the days stretch on and the hunger intensifies, the film captures her physical transformation, emotional battles, and unexpected spiritual breakthroughs. Guided by both ancient wisdom and modern science, she confronts the demons that food once silenced and reveals the power that lies in letting go. This is not just a health journey - it's a story of resilience, awakening, and the human will to heal.
