How to Blow Up a Pipeline is a 2022 heist film directed by Daniel Goldhaber and written by Ariela Barer, Jordan Sjol, and Daniel Goldhaber.[1] It is an adaptation of Andreas Malm's 2021 book, How to Blow Up a Pipeline, published by Verso Books.[2] Malm's book is a work of nonfiction that uses a history of social justice movements to argue that property destruction should be considered a valid tactic in the pursuit of environmental justice.[3] The film, set mostly in West Texas, revolves around a group of eight young people who decide to blow up an oil pipeline.[1]

The film stars Ariela Barer, Kristine Froseth, Lukas Gage, Forrest Goodluck, Sasha Lane, Jayme Lawson, Marcus Scribner, Jake Weary, and Irene Bedard.[1] It premiered in the Platform Prize program at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival on September 10, 2022.[4][5] After its premiere, Neon acquired the North American distribution rights, intending to release it theatrically.[6]

How to Blow Up a Pipeline is Goldhaber's second feature film after CAM (2018).[7]
