About the film
In this sensitively crafted documentary, choreographer Hadar Ahuvia explores the roots of the Israeli folk dances she grew up dancing with her mother. Facing romanticized stories about her grandparents, Zionist ‘kibbutznik’ settlers in Palestine in the 1930’s, she begins a personal endeavor unpacking and confronting the appropriative origins of this inherited dance. Through this vulnerable, personal story a larger weaving of powerful artistic portraits emerge— Jewish, Israeli, and Palestinian dancers living in New York City question what is inherited and what we choose to carry forward.

What people are saying
“This examination of the artistic process is as lyrical as the work itself, and gives us an embodied centering, a new place to view identity and to question the narratives we have either inherited or ingested from our daily lives.”
Dan Brawley
Cucalorus Film Festival
“A complicated and thorny portrait of dance as a form of cultural expression that cannot exist without context.”
Carly Mattox
“It may only be art, but it feels like Ahuvia— and in turn Tenenbaum behind the camera— is risking a lot in trying to reconcile the history she was given with the truth she is seeking.”
Candice Thompson
“Everything You Have Is Yours is not a screed or polemic but rather a gorgeous, engrossing portrait of committed dancers — Israeli, Ashkenazi, Sephardic, Mizrahi, American and Palestinian — as they, like Ahuvia, claim their own “freedom of movement” within the shackles that bind past and present.”
