The intelligent subtleties of Dabis’ film should not be overlooked. Go to Full Review
Sergio Burstein Los Angeles Times Jan 21
Interesting thing about the third film by Palestinian-American Cherien Dabis is not its militant aspect or the division it may make between 'bad' and 'good', but the profoundly humanistic turn that occurs near the end. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Sonia Rao Washington Post Jan 16
3/4
A multigenerational epic written and directed by Cherien Dabis, a Palestinian American, that explores what it feels like to live through relentless trauma. Go to Full Review
Alan Zilberman Washington City Paper 4d
The desire to educate increases the potential for sanctimony. Dabis nearly gets into that territory, then relents by finally following the nature of her characters. Parts of the film, especially the quieter final messages, are genuinely moving. Go to Full Review
Sammie Purcell Rough Draft Atlanta 6d
"All That’s Left of You" mines the lineage of this family in all its hurt and joy with the knowledge that we can’t understand anything — not hate, nor power, nor love, nor ourselves — in a vacuum. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Peppered with vivid moments that carry a strong emotional punch, this melodramatic epic traces Palestine's history over some 65 years through the prism of a family. Go to Full Review

Paul Feb 9 One of the most powerful films I have seen in a long time , the storytelling is captivating and outside of the topic (which is moving) the charecters themselves and the acting is impactful See more Rulla H Feb 3 I loved the movie. It sounded exactly like the story my grandmother shared with us on how she, my dad and two aunts escaped Jaffa in 1948. It was almost 100% identical. Extremely emotional. I just wish more theaters played this movie so more people can see it. See more Daniel Kaufman Feb 2 Not just important as a history not told enough in the west, but a beautiful and moving work of art. See more OA Feb 1 Your humanity is resistance! See more Sami Jan 31 One of the most emotionally charged movies that I have ever seen. It is a must see for anyone looking to get a little more color on what's going on in Palestine. We were a group of 13 and I don't think anyone said a word for 10 minutes after the movie ended.
