As a film critic with a soft spot for stories that resonate deeply and tap into the human spirit, I find myself captivated by Cherien Dabis’ latest masterpiece, “All That’s Left of You.” Having traversed the complexities of identity and heritage in her previous works, Dabis now delves even deeper, weaving a poignant tale that spans generations and geographies.
As a dedicated cinephile, I’m thrilled to share that The Match Factory has taken on the task of managing global distribution for “All That’s Left of You,” an emotionally resonant family saga spanning several decades, directed by the incredibly talented Cherien Dabis. This film is set to captivate audiences worldwide with its poignant storyline and powerful performances.
At the moment, the movie is undergoing post-production and has generated much excitement at this year’s Atlas Workshops. The plot follows a Palestinian family spanning three generations, delving into cycles of suffering that trace back to their displacement from Jaffa in 1948. It then portrays their struggles throughout occupation, violence, and contemporary sorrow in the West Bank.
An acclaimed filmmaker and actor, Dabis stars as well, anchoring the film as a devastated mother to a teenaged son injured by an Israeli soldier. As her son’s life hangs in the balance, the grief-struck woman tries to make sense of her family and people’s heritage. Actors – and brothers – Saleh Bakri (“The Blue Caftan”) and Adam Bakri (“Omar”) co-star alongside father Mohammad Bakri (“Boy From Heaven,” “Homeland”), making the project a truly intergenerational portrait.
Made by Pallas Film, Twenty Twenty Vision, and AMP Filmworks, the film “All That’s Left of You” has consistently garnered industry interest since the production was forced to abandon its intended shoot in Jaffa when war erupted in Gaza. Later, Dabis and the team filmed the entire movie in Cyprus, with the tumultuous circumstances serving as inspiration for filmmaker Bilal Alkhatib’s documentary, “Unmaking Of.
A well-known director in TV, recognized for work on “Only Murders in the Building,” “Ramy,” and “Ozark,” this Palestinian-American filmmaker initially gained recognition with her first movie, “Amreeka.” Dabis’ debut was widely praised at the Sundance Film Festival and even earned a Fipresci prize from Cannes. Her subsequent work, “May in the Summer,” premiered at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival before screening in Venice and London.
