“..A thorny and intricate film that is also breathtakingly simple and honest” New York Times.
‘The Time That Remains’ is a semi-biographical drama written and directed by Palestinian director Elia Suleiman in 2009. It gives an account of the creation of the Israeli state from 1948 to the present by following strands of his and his father’s lives. Phillip French in the Guardian described it as a “cool, controlled minor masterpiece, the tone detached, oblique, surreal.”
We have pleased to have Keith Withall, local film enthusiast introducing this film Keith will put the film in context of Elia Suleiman’s other films and other Palestinian films. Keith has a broad knowledge of Palestinian film and introduced our screening of ‘Divine Intervention’ during our first festival in 2015.
