This exciting ecothriller tells the story of a group of youths who plan an attack on an oil pipeline. Xochitl lost her mother to cancer. Michael’s community is facing the consequences of fracking. Theo is ill because as a child she was exposed to radioactivity. Resident Dwayne is caught up in a legal battle with the oil company, that wants to place a pipeline across his land.

This ecothriller catches the eye because of its fantastic cast, thrilling scenes, pulsing electronic music and a strong script, loosely based on an eponymous, non-fictional book. The marvellous editing brings about an intense tempo that will hold you on the edge of your seat.
