Cherien Dabis: Filmmaking & Resistance | Sumud Podcast
Manage episode 490889779 series 3609838

This week on the Sumud Podcast, we’re joined by Emmy-nominated filmmaker, writer, and actress Cherien Dabis—a bold storyteller whose life and work explore the power of identity, resistance, and the stories we carry.
Born in Nebraska to Palestinian parents and raised in small-town Ohio, Cherien came of age during the first Gulf War, a time when neighbors turned on her family overnight. This political awakening eventually shaped her groundbreaking work, from Amreeka and May in the Summer to directing award-winning episodes of Only Murders in the Building and starring in Netflix’s Mo.
Her latest feature, All That’s Left of You, tells the Palestinian origin story through the lens of one family across generations. Filmed during the current war, the production was forced to flee Palestine mid-shoot. But what emerged, as Cherien tells it, was “a film made from grief, love, and sheer determination.”
🔑 In this episode, we explore:
➡ Growing up Arab in America post-Gulf War
➡ Turning generational trauma into cinematic truth
➡ The fight to humanize Palestinians in Western media
➡ Acting in Mo, directing Meryl Streep, and resisting Hollywood erasure
➡ The making of All That’s Left of You
