They Are Gone But Here I Must Remain combines firsthand interviews, videos, and movement-based performance. It is staged within the genre of performance lectures, and explores the connections between image and action, artist and activist.
Director Kathryn Hamilton has explored the story that Peter Whitehead's film "The Fall" inspired the 1974 student occupations in Athens that forced the ruling military junta to cede power, restoring democracy to Greece. They Are Gone But Here I Must Remain uses interviews from "The Fall", along with the experiences of the artists involved, to question the point of contact between image and action.
They Are Gone But Here I Must Remain features Kathryn Hamilton, Kelsea Martin, and Cyrus Moshrefi.
