Bombs echo, children scream and the cries of resistance rally on through the streets. After Palestinian teen Noor confronts Israeli soldiers at the West Bank, his mother recounts the history of their family’s hopes and heartaches. Spanning the period between the Nakba in 1948 and the all-too-familiar present, Cherien Dabis’s award-winning drama is a heart-wrenching portrait of displacement, dispossession and life under occupation, and one of the last roles of beloved actor Mohammad Bakri.
From executive producers Javier Bardem and Mark Ruffalo, All That’s Left of You is the official submission of Jordan to the 98th Academy Awards (Best International Feature Film).
Special preview screening on 1 Feb followed by a Q&A with director Cherien Dabis moderated by Elhum Shakerifar
The screening on 8 Feb (15.15) will be preceded by an embroidery workshop from 13.00 to 15.00, operated by Tatreez Collective.
In this hands-on workshop, participants will be introduced to the history and cultural significance of the Tahriri stitch, learn the technique step by step, and begin stitching from a traditional chest panel design inspired by historic Palestinian garments. No prior embroidery experience is needed — the workshop is suitable for beginners as well as those wishing to deepen their understanding of Tatreez.
