Controversial eco-thriller "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" sparks debate.

TL;DR Summary
How to Blow Up a Pipeline, a film adaptation of the book of the same name by Andreas Malm, follows a group of characters who decide to come together for a pipeline-destruction "project" in West Texas. The film explores the idea that violence can be a cleansing force and argues that those who enable, profit from, and turn a blind eye to climate change are on one side, and those willing to do something to stop that destruction are on the other. The film's final shot and message complicate the distinction between empathy and justification for the central action.
