All That’s Left of You : Cherien Dabis Presents Her Palestinian Family Epic at the Paris Premiere

Paris, UGC Cine-Cite Les Halles, March 5 2026 On March 5, 2026, the Parisian cinema UGC Ciné-Cité Les Halles hosted the French premiere of All That’s Left of You, the sweeping historical drama written, directed, and starring Cherien Dabis. The filmmaker personally attended the screening to present the film to the Paris audience, marking an important moment ahead of its French theatrical release scheduled for March 11, 2026. While the event had originally been announced as including a post-screening Q&A session with the director, the discussion ultimately did not take place, leaving many spectators slightly disappointed after what proved to be an emotionally charged viewing experience. Even without the anticipated exchange, the presence of Cherien Dabis gave the evening a special resonance, reinforcing the personal dimension of a film that has already become one of the most widely discussed international productions of the past year. Premiering at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival on January 25, 2025, All That’s Left of You (original Arabic title: اللي باقي منك) quickly emerged as one of the standout works of that edition, attracting attention both for its ambitious narrative scope and for its emotional intensity. Running 146 minutes, the film unfolds as a multi-generational fresco tracing the fate of a Palestinian family from 1948 to the present day, intertwining the broader historical upheavals of the region with deeply intimate personal stories. Produced by Thanassis Karathanos, Cherien Dabis, Martin Hampel, and Karim Amer, the film brings together a strong creative team that includes cinematographer Christopher Aoun, editor Tina Baz, and composer Amine Bouhafa, whose musical score subtly reinforces the film’s shifting emotional landscapes. On screen, the story is carried by a remarkable ensemble cast featuring Saleh Bakri, Mohammad Bakri, Adam Bakri, Maria Zreik, Muhammad Abed Elrahman, Sanad Alkabareti, and Salah El Din, performers who collectively embody the different generations at the heart of the narrative. The film’s festival journey since its Sundance debut has confirmed its impact within the international cinema landscape. After its premiere, All That’s Left of You was selected as Jordan’s official submission for Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards, reaching the shortlist announced in December 2025. That year proved notable for the category, as three films centered on Palestinian history were submitted by different countries, including Palestine 36 and The Voice of Hind Rajab, highlighting the growing visibility of narratives from the region in global cinema. The film’s festival circuit continued throughout 2025 with significant recognition, including the Audience Award for Best International Film at the Sydney Film Festival, the Publieksprijs (Audience Award) at the Leiden International Film Festival in the Netherlands, and the Best Film award at the 8th Malaysia International Film Festival. In early 2026, it also appeared in the Awards Buzz Best International Feature Film section at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, further consolidating its reputation as one of the most acclaimed international productions of the year. At the center of the project stands Cherien Dabis, a Palestinian-American filmmaker whose career has long explored themes of identity, diaspora, and cultural belonging. She first gained international recognition with Amreeka, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2009 and later received the FIPRESCI Prize at the Directors’ Fortnight at the Cannes Film Festival, before directing May in the Summer, which opened Sundance in 2013. In the press materials accompanying All That’s Left of You, Cherien Dabis describes the film as deeply rooted in her own personal history. One of her earliest childhood memories, she recalls, dates back to a visit to Palestine when she was eight years old, when her family was detained for twelve hours at the border by Israeli soldiers. Synopsis : From 1948 to the present day, three generations of a Palestinian family carry the hopes and wounds of a people. A fresco where history and intimacy meet.
