All That’s Left of You
Cherien Dabis, Saleh Bakri, Adam Bakri, Mohammad Bakri,
An epic drama spanning three generations and over seventy years in the life of a Palestinian family, this dynamic and heart-wrenching film centers on the personal while also depicting the dehumanizing political situation surrounding its characters. The narrative begins in 1988 in the Occupied West Bank, where Salim (Saleh Bakri, The Teacher) lives with his wife, Hanan (writer/director Cherien Dabis), and son, Noor. The boy, increasingly rebellious against what he sees as his dad’s inaction, takes to the streets to protest the occupation, where something happens that will change the course of the family’s life. As a lengthy flashback explains how events that occurred in 1948 shaped Salim’s diffident personality, the narrative relays a textured story of a husband and father who becomes despondent in the face of constant oppression. With powerful performances and a propulsive narrative, All That’s Left of You is a stirring representation of survival amid intergenerational trauma.
