Plot

Two families in a Mexican village are in a feud, and a killing and a young man's need for revenge or peace drives the tragedy.

Sinekatalog’s take

Luis Buñuel's Mexican drama, El río y la muerte, with Columba Domínguez and Joaquín Cordero, is a bleak, bitter and underseen film about honor and violence.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
