Sand (2010) | Stream

SAND 


Zelda stops at the curb where you pick up day labor. She needs someone to paint her room. He paints and she hates the color. An aging woman who desires a facelift and Snake Arroyo, a homeless gay man who dreams of moving to the New Mexico desert... how do they fit together? They don't. But don't tell them that.
