Atef returned to Berlin to study film direction at the prestigious Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie Berlin (DFFB).

More Than Ever was critically acclaimed:
Los Angeles Times "director and co-writer Emily Atef's thoughtful character study, anchored by one of the current film landscape's great actors, Phantom Thread 's Vicky Krieps, is to eschew sentimentality and foreground a search for a new, unexplored peace."
Indiewire "Atef bypasses the inevitable funeral and instead closes off with what is surely one of the best sex scenes in recent cinematic memory."
Someday We'll Tell Each Other Everything (German: Irgendwann werden wir uns alles erzählen) is Atef's first novel adaptation, based on the novel of the same name by Daniela Krien who also co-adapted the novel with Atef for the screen.

She was also responsible for the black comedy episode for Germany's oldest and most acclaimed crime series Tatort, Tatort: Falscher Hase (Run Rabbit Run) that she co-wrote and directed, inspired by the Coen Brothers' film Fargo.
