A Stone’s Throw
Directed by Razan AlSalah • 2024 • Canada, Lebanon, Palestine
Amine, a Palestinian elder, is exiled twice, from land and labor, from Haifa to Beirut to a Gulf offshore oil platform. A STONE’S THROW trespasses borders to reveal an emotional and material proximity between the extraction of oil and labor in the region and the colonization of Palestine. The film rehearses a history of the Palestinian resistance when, in 1936, the oil laborers of Haifa blow up a BP pipeline.
