HOUSE OF SAND (Casa de Areia) (2006) (D+)

Aurea is brought to the northern Brazilian town by her insane husband Vasco, who suffers from delusions that the barren land may be profitably farmed. A calamitous turn of events leaves Aurea, now pregnant, and her mother Maria alone in the desert in a house full of sand.

Warren Rating: D+ Cinematography excellent. Screenplay nonexistent. Would make a good story for 4 year olds if the sex stuff was removed. Treasure Island without a plot.

Sandy Rating: B. It had some good lines about women's lib and it is similar to the stuff she reads.
