Every Grain of Dirt

Every Grain of Dirt documents life in South Lebanon under ongoing threats of displacement and war. As sweeping evacuation orders force over a million people from their homes, some choose to remain. Among them is Ismail, a shepherd who refuses to leave his village — even as bulldozers arrive to erase it, nearly burying him alive as he stands in defiance before the machine.
