Jordan’s Official Entry for the 98 th Academy Awards
T A P E announces the theatrical release of Palestinian American writer/director Cherien Dabis’ multi award-winning film ALL THAT’S LEFT OF YOU on 6 February, to cinemas in UK & Ireland. In deeply moving performances Cherien Dabis stars alongside Saleh Bakri, Adam Bakri, Mohammad Bakri and Maria Zreik in this searing, historical epic which is executive produced by Javier Bardem and Mark Ruffalo. The film tells the story about how one Palestinian family were displaced and their enduring love for one another, and their homeland.
Following a successful 2025 festival run premiering at SUNDANCE 2025, the film has become one of the most awarded of the year with 20 festival prizes, including 10 audience awards collected internationally at San Francisco International Film Festival, Malaysia International Film Festival, Sydney Film Festival, Hamptons International Film Festival, Orcas Island Film Festival and Thessaloniki International Film Festival among others (full list in Notes to Editors), ALL THAT’S LEFT OF YOU is Jordan’s official entry for the 98th Academy Awards in the international feature category.
In the Occupied West Bank of the 1980s, a Palestinian teenager (Muhammad Abed Elrahman) is swept into a protest that changes the course of his family’s life. Reeling from its aftermath, his mother, Hanan (Cherien Dabis), shares the story that led them to that fateful moment. Spanning seven decades, this epic drama traces the hopes and heartaches of one uprooted family, revealing not only the scars of displacement, but the unbreakable spirit of survival.
“At its core, this film is about the humanity that endures across generations of loss,” said Cherien Dabis. “I’m grateful to share it with audiences in the UK and Ireland, especially at this crucial time when it can provide much needed, emotional context for how we arrived to this current political moment.”
Isra Al Kassi, co-founder T A P E said, “Drawn from personal grief ALL THAT’s LEFT OF YOU is an important contribution to cinema history, and to the continued and ongoing fight against dehumanisation of Palestinians all over the world.
“To be able to bring ALL THAT’S LEFT OF YOU to audiences and cinemas in the UK and Ireland is a true honour. We have followed and admired Cherien’s career from her first feature Amreeka to her incredible television career and now get to be part of this stunning big screen epic.
“We are grateful for the generosity in all of those involved in bringing this story to the big screen and look forward to seeing audiences connect with the film”.
Cherien Dabis is a Palestinian American filmmaker and actress who has established herself as a creative force across a variety of mediums. Having helped forge a new genre of Arab American storytelling, she brings authenticity, complexity, and humanity to the stories she writes, directs, and performs, spotlighting underrepresented perspectives with humour and humanity.
Dabis got her start with her trailblazing debut feature Amreeka, which she wrote and directed. Exploring the immigrant journey of a Palestinian single mom, the film had its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival before going on to win the coveted FIPRESCI International Critics Prize in the Director’s Fortnight at Cannes. It won a dozen more international awards and was nominated for a Best Picture Gotham Award, three Independent Spirit Awards including Best Picture, Best First Screenplay and Best Actress, and was named one of the Top Ten Independent Films of the Year by the National Board of Review. The film landed Dabis on Variety’s “Ten Directors to Watch” list that same year.
A true multi-hyphenate, Dabis made her acting debut when she starred opposite Bill Pullman, Hiam Abbass and Alia Shawkat in her second feature film, 2013 Sundance opener May in the Summer about a Palestinian American writer who returns home to reconnect with her roots, which she also wrote and directed. The following year she played the leading role in Villa Touma (2014), a dark comedy from director Suha Arraf. The film premiered at the Toronto and Venice Film Festivals.
Dabis has also showcased her signature approach into television, executive producing and directing standout episodes of Golden Globe-winning Ramy for Hulu, and guest starring in Netflix’s Gotham and Peabody award- winning Mo. In 2022, she was nominated for an Emmy Award for ‘Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series’ for the critically acclaimed and ground-breaking episode The Boy From 6B on Hulu’s hit show Only Murders in the Building, starring comedy legends Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez. Variety hailed the dialogue-free episode of television told from the point of view of a deaf character as “the episode of the year” and “a tour de force of directorial achievement.” In addition to directing additional standout episodes in season two and three, Dabis’ television directorial credits also include episodes of Netflix’s Ozark. Additional television acting credits include Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout and Apple TV+’s Extrapolations with Maryl Streep, Edward Norton, Diane Lane and Sienna Miller.
