If Everyone Just Leaves
Buy ticketsDiverse questions and expanded perspectives in a film that lands right among the most burning political issues of recent years.
Nazira lives with her husband and three children in Tensta. Here, they have found a home and, together with neighbors and friends, have become part of a larger community. But one evening in the parking lot, the family encounters a group of guys who threaten them with a gun. The incident leaves deep marks, and afterwards, the husband and children talk about moving, which for Nazira is unthinkable. She loves Tensta and wants to fight to stay. Karin Wegsjö and Nazira Abzalova's If Everyone Just Leaves is an open, close-up, and highly relevant portrayal of how people and communities are affected by gang violence.
