- A 72-year-old grandmother dies and finds herself on a ferry which will take her across the river to the hereafter. On the ferryboat she meets her first love, who was killed in a road accident in which they were both involved when they were young. She is presented with a fateful choice: to start life afresh as a 22-year-old - her age at the time of the accident - and to relinquish all her memories of the life she has lived with her husband and children; or to remain a 72-year-old woman with all her life's memories intact. If she chooses the second alternative she will get off the boat when it reaches its destination and will never be truly reunited with her beloved, who has been waiting for her on the ferryboat for fifty long years.
- (CONTAINS SPOILERS) Directed by Keren Margalit, All I've Got is like a well written Yiddish episode of the original Twilight Zone. The film revolves around the life of Tamara, who survived the car accident that killed her boyfriend, Udi when she was 22 and who went on to marry another man and have 3 children. After her death at 75 she finds herself boarding a ship in the afterlife and aboard the ship is her lost love, Udi, who has been working aboard the ship waiting for her since his death in the car accident. Tamara is offered a second chance: forget the memory of her life with her husband and children and be young again with Udi, or choose to remain as she is and wait for her husband to join her. Who hasn't considered the "road not traveled" in their own life and wondered what if they had a second chance? Tamara's choices are not easy and eventually she has to choose what path she will stay take for eternity. Keren Margalit's fantasy about youth and aging and second chances is an engaging and moving film that has us wondering, what would we do if we were in Tamara's place?
