White Oil II

White Oil II explores the stone quarrying industry in Palestine’s West Bank. Installed as a double screen installation, the film, made over a three year period, is a subtle examination of the impact and workings of the occupation, where much of the material quarried is expropriated by Israeli authorities, used to build settlements and exported as Israeli stone. Moving from day to night Price documents the industrial process of the material extraction and moments in the personal lives of quarry owners, workers and security guards working there.
