Synopsis
In Palestine’s “Area C,” an unpoliced fractured zone, marijuana cultivation is thriving due to the lack of law enforcement and opportunities. ABBAS (48), a self-righteous car mechanic residing in an Area C village, is on an obsessive mission to avenge the death of his older son, who was killed at an Israeli checkpoint while smuggling weed for the village’s drug lord, AHMAD (55), who happens to be Abbas’s brother-in-law. But Abbas’s task turns lethal when he discovers his younger son’s, HAMMOUD (22), secretive involvement in the drug trade. But as Abbas’s vengeance gets more complicated, entangling Hammoud, he has one last chance to save his only living son from impending doom. Weedestine is a story of a grieving family, told under the skin of a neo-noir revenge thriller.
