Movie Info
In the tiny town of Milagro, New Mexico, where the local water is a premium resource, shady developer Ladd Devine (Richard Bradford) has conceived a glitzy resort that will ultimately siphon off all the water from the neighboring crop-fields. When handyman and farmer Joe Mondragon (Chick Vennera) accidentally breaks a water valve reserved for major companies, he inadvertently sets off a small-scale water-rights war between the farmers and the developers.

Preachy but well acted. Redford at times is more concentrated on the message rather than allowing the film to put that forward naturally.

Great movie by Robert Redford, Sonia Braga is phenomenal!
