Female Gaze: The Film Club

Interview with "Everything You Have Is Yours" Director Tatyana Tenenbaum and Producer Brighid Greene

On this week's episode of Female Gaze: The Film Club, Morgan is joined by director Tatyana Tenenbaum and producer Brighid Greene to discuss their documentary film, "Everything You Have Is Yours." The film follows dancer and choreographer Hadar Ahuvia as she interrogates the Israeli folk dances taught to her by her mother. Hadar embarks on a reckoning with the mythologies of her youth and confronts the romanticized stories of her grandparents who were settlers of Palestine in the 1930s. Hadar's journey is woven with other artistic portrayals from Jewish, Israeli, and Palestinian dancers in New York City.  In their conversation, Tatyana, Brighid, and Morgan discuss the film's construction from the earliest days of production through the editing process, the threads of the film along with Hadar's evolving story, and how their philosophies of documentary filmmaking translate in "Everything You Have Is Yours."  You can follow the film, "Everything You Have Is Yours" Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/everythingyouhaveisyours/?hl=en] Website You can book a screening of "Everything You Have Is Yours" here [https://www.everythingyouhaveisyoursfilm.com/contact].
