Summary:

"Solicits comparison to the work of Andrei Tarkovsky . . . abrasively sensual. A brazenly confident first film." - A.D. Scott, The New York Times

A man leaves Mexico City for the remote countryside to prepare for his death. There he finds lodging with an old Indian widow in her rickety home overlooking a remote canyon. In the vastness of a wild, breathtaking nature, he confronts the old woman's infinite humanity and oscillates between cruelty and lyricism. His dulled senses return to him, reawakening his desires and instincts for life and raw sexuality.
