Winner, Berlinale Documentary Award, Berlin International Film Festival. An American family watches the horror of the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks unfold—only to be plunged into a nightmare when they learn their daughter, sister, and mother, Liat Beinin Atzili, was abducted from her kibbutz, and her husband, Aviv, was killed. Led by her father, Yehuda, Liat’s family launches an urgent campaign for her release, navigating grief, fear, and deeply personal differences in how they process the crisis. As Yehuda appeals to U.S. lawmakers and calls for dialogue and reconciliation, other family members grapple with their own trauma, anger, and desire to keep politics at a distance. Holding Liat is an intimate portrait of a family under unimaginable strain, capturing their love, resilience, and the emotional toll of violence as they struggle to hold together in the face of uncertainty. (USA, 2025, 97 min., color, Rated NR, In English/Hebrew with subtitles)
