Mendoza manages to create a distinct mood piece in "Tierra en la Lengua," but the film's plodding pacing and often repetitive structure could prove tedious for some.
The Film Society of Lincoln Center's yearly Latin Beats program recently unveiled Colombia movie called "Tierra en la Lengua (Dust on the Tongue)" directed by noted auteur Ruben Mendoza. The filmmaker spoke with Latin Post.com about his experience making the film, which could be one of the best Latin American films of the year, as well as his inspirations and what making movies means to him.
