Flooded Out (1962)7.3 /10

Storyline:  When the waters of the Salado River rise, the humble neighbors are forced to leave their homes and head for the unknown. Amidst demagogic politicians and an absurd bureaucracy, the Gaitán family, led by the unforgettable Pirucho Gómez, becomes the face of this odyssey. The father of the New Latin American Cinema, Fernando Birri, employs a neorealist style that mixes tragedy and humor to reveal the humanity in every character in this comedy charged with political critique.
