Being a big fan of director William Friedkin 's work, I was very excited for this release. So, of course I backordered it. The wait was well worth it. The story surrounds four men who have nowhere to go and are exiled to South America and working as laborers. In the first 30 minutes we learn about them and how they came to be in such a squalid place. I have to say here, that the scenery is tangible . . . You can feel the sweat and the dirt. It's beautifully filmed.
