Tierra Movie Review 1995

Metaphysical messiness. Mystery exterminator Angel (Gomez) comes to Aragon, a land of red soil and lightning strikes, to fumigate the woodlice infesting the vineyards. He recruits some locals and gypsies to help him out while becoming involved with a couple of women--shy Angela (Suarez) and hot Mari (Klein). But Angel is also literally haunted by an alter ego--a situation that no doubt has some deep meaning that is never very clear. But neither is the rest of the movie. Spanish with subtitles.
