WHEN THE LAND SUFFERS, SO DO THE FAMILIES WHO DEPEND ON IT. IN SOUTHERN LEBANON, OLIVE FARMERS HAVE WATCHED THEIR GROVES BURN, THEIR SOIL BECOME POLLUTED, AND THEIR HARVEST SHRINK UNDER THE WEIGHT OF WAR. WHAT ONCE FILLED BOTTLES TO THE TOP IS NOW MEASURED BY WHAT’S LEFT. WHILE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY CONTINUES TO BUY OLIVE OIL AS IF NOTHING HAS CHANGED, THE SOUTH IS QUIETLY LOSING ONE OF ITS MOST SACRED LIFELINES, DROP BY DROP.
