Those Who Remain (2019)
Directed by Charlotte Grégoire, Anne Schiltz
Documentary · 1h 33m
The film follows residents who refuse to abandon their homes despite shrinking communities, closed services, and growing isolation. Through intimate conversations, daily routines, and personal reflections, the documentary examines: • What it means to hold onto a disappearing way of life • The emotional cost of staying when others leave • The strength and identity tied to land, family history, and community • The quiet resilience of those who remain behind Rather than portraying rural life nostalgically, it presents a grounded, human portrait of individuals adapting to change while preserving dignity, belonging, and continuity in places slowly fading from the map.
