About ALL THAT BELONGS:
Catherine, an archivist, has spent decades conserving the pasts of others, only to find her own resurfacing on the eve of retirement. As she mines memories of her difficult uncle and troubled brother, she discovers something even darker at play. All That Belongs is an elegant and moving portrayal of ephemeral histories and the startling consequences of familial ties, silences, and shame.
