A deeply personal exploration of Lina Soualem’s relationship with her mother, the acclaimed Palestinan actor Hiam Abbass, is also a powerful and pertinent testimony about displacement.
Abbass (Lemon Tree, Insyriated, Blade Runner 2049, Succession) always wanted to act and left behind her mother, her grandmother and her seven sisters to pursue her career abroad. Soualem’s love letter to her mother follows the actor as she returns home to the village she grew up in and traces the turbulent history of those she left behind.
Drawing on a wealth of archive footage, this beautiful documentary reconnects intimately with the women of Tiberias, Palestine and beyond.
