Learning to fight in a world on fire
A crew of young environmental activists execute a daring mission to sabotage an oil pipeline, in director Daniel Goldhaber's taut and timely thriller that is part high-stakes heist, part radical exploration of the climate crisis.
Critics Reviews:
- “A nervy eco-thriller that doubles as a persuasive piece of activist messaging, Daniel Goldhaber’s film vibrates with urgency.” – Richard Lawson (Vanity Fair)
- “It’s not a manifesto, really, but a matter-of-fact portrayal of the palpable anger emanating from a betrayed generation.” – Clarisse Loughrey (Independent (UK)
- “Goldhaber fashions this feisty, incendiary political barnburner as a daring heist thriller, "Ocean's Eleven” with an agenda. And it definitely goes boom." – Adam Graham (Detroit News)
- “Tense and tightly plotted, How To Blow Up A Pipeline is existentially terrifying but not nihilistic. It’s an exciting, humanist eco-thriller that figures there’s still time to take action — but only so much.” – Kambole Campbell (Empire Magazine)
