Bye Bye Tiberias (PG) (AD)

Parent and Baby Screening

— ,Cinema 3
Two women look at a wall that has photographs and notes pinned on to it.

Years after leaving her Palestinian village to pursue an acting career, Hiam Abbass returns home in this intimate documentary about four generations of women and their shared legacy of separation.

In her early twenties, Hiam Abbass left her native Palestinian village to follow her dream of becoming an actress in Europe, leaving behind her mother, grandmother, and seven sisters.

Thirty years later, her filmmaker daughter Lina returns with her to the village and questions for the first time her mother’s bold choices, her chosen exile and the way the women in their family influenced both their lives.

Set between past and present, Bye Bye Tiberias pieces together images of today, family footage from the nineties and historical archives to portray four generations of daring Palestinian women who keep their story and legacy alive through the strength of their bonds, despite exile, dispossession, and heartbreak.
