All That Remains

Palestinian Arab Bedouins once peopled the entire Naqab (Negev) Desert, a region which accounts for 60% of historic Palestine. Today, they are living in one of 46 "unrecognized villages" lacking water, electricity, schools, roads or medical services. The film explores the struggle of these Bedouins of the Naqab against Israeli policies that aim to strip them of their land and their way of life.
