All That's Left of You (M)

In 1948, a family leaves their village in Palestine with the belief they will return. Across the decades that follow — through displacement, diaspora, love, loss, and quiet acts of resistance — what remains is held in memory, in name, in the threads of a story passed from one generation to the next.

All That's Left of You is a sweeping, intimate epic that spans eight decades of Palestinian life. Shot across multiple countries after the production crew was evacuated from Palestine mid-filming, the film bears witness to history not through politics alone, but through the texture of a family's survival.

Director Cherien Dabis has crafted a work of rare emotional intelligence — a film that insists on the full humanity of its subjects, and demands the same from its audience.

★★★★ "Dabis’ screenplay is episodic but it gathers power as it goes. She doesn’t believe in shorthand. Nor does she hold back in portraying the tragic consequences of the Palestinians’ expulsion from their homes." THE AGE

★★★★ "The intelligent subtleties of Dabis’ film should not be overlooked." LWL

★★★★ "Cherien Dabis draws one of the most important movies of the year with All That’s Left of You, a difficult but necessary watch to bear witness to past and present-day atrocities." LOUD AND CLEAR
