WINNER – Academy Award® for Best Original Score – Dave Grusin


Directed by Academy Award® Winning Actor and Director Robert Redford, and stars some of Hollywood’s critically acclaimed actors including Christopher Walken, John Heard, Sonia Braga, Ruben Blades, M. Emmet Walsh, and many more.


Based on John Nichol’s best selling novel, and the first of Nichol’s “New Mexico” trilogy book series.


Synopsis: 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.
