A Portrait of the Innocent

It is a documentary that follows the report made by the journalist. The photographs speak volumes. The videos and the memories of people whose lives were cut short by gun violence.In this documentary, we see the family members who live with these crystallized memories, mixing love and pain. The people and their expectations, their desires, their innocence. Everything that was taken from them.It focuses on what matters most.

Cut short like the lives it memorialises

All The Empty Rooms perfectly encapsulates the unfulfilled potential and stolen futures of children taken too soon in America's now-routine school shootings - tragedies so frequent they have fused into the nation's social fabric. The film centres on four children, each represented through the preserved stillness of their bedrooms. These rooms function as time capsules, frozen at the precise moment life stopped: part shrine, part elegy, and part devastating inventory of what might have been. Posters remain on the walls, books sit unfinished on desks, hobbies lie mid-abandonment. The absence is louder than any narration.Steve Hartman's mission is clear and earnest: to force his country to look directly at the cost of inaction on gun control. It is an honourable endeavour, and the emotional register of the film is undeniably raw. In just 35 minutes, it delivers a sustained ache - quiet, intimate, and difficult to sit with. Yet that intensity also exposes the film's limitations.For all its emotional force, All The Empty Rooms feels oddly constrained by its own framing. Featuring only four children - despite Hartman having prepared far more photo books - risks turning an epidemic into a curated sampling, when the true horror lies in the scale. The decision narrows the lens at precisely the moment when expansion might have amplified the film's moral urgency. The result is a work that gestures toward collective outrage but remains rooted in individual grief, stopping short of fully interrogating the structural and political paralysis that allows these rooms to keep multiplying.In the end, All The Empty Rooms is deeply moving but frustratingly incomplete. It reminds us - powerfully - that every statistic once belonged to a child with a bedroom, a future, and a life in motion. What it does not quite achieve is the transformation of that reminder into an unignorable reckoning. One leaves not unmoved, but wishing the film had dared to be as expansive, relentless, and overwhelming as the tragedy it seeks to memorialise.

Pure human

Beautifully restrained and deeply human, Every frame and silence feels alive with emotions and says more than words ever could, every photos was taken during the movie pulls you to listen not to what said but to thing that wasn't said or spoken.Amazing experience and the movie makes you see everything from different perspectives, it just proves the silence sometimes stronger and louder than dialogue.
