Black Wind
Directed by Servando González
Produced by Producciones Yanco
A gritty drama of human endurance and sacrifice set against the brutal Sonora desert, where workers and engineers clash while battling both nature and each other.
The building of a railroad under tough conditions from searing heat to freezing cold in the Sonora desert provokes clashes of passion and struggles between the engineers and the workers at the campsite. The workers also contend with sudden dust storms that are called the 'black wind'. Based on true events.
