NOTES I saw this when it first came out and it was a disappointment.

And I don't think it will have worn well.

The story is of two farming families, one black, the other

white, who are struggling to make a living. They co-operate

to get the water to irrigate their fields. But they cause

problems for a rich, white landowner who wants them out. He

has a son with learning difficulties and uses him in his fight

against the farmers.
