All That's Left of You
After a Palestinian teen confronts Israeli soldiers at a West Bank protest, his mother recounts the series of events that led him to that fateful moment, starting with his grandfather’s forced displacement.
In her extraordinary, profoundly moving third feature, Palestinian American actor and filmmaker Cherien Dabis (Amreeka, 2009; May in the Summer, 2013) chronicles the lives of three generations of a Palestinian family spanning almost 75 years of history.
