THE SAND ROSE

by Margaret Summerton ‧ RELEASE DATE: Nov. 28, 1969

Rachel, 21, goes to stay in Tunisia with her only brother Raymond and his wife, Suli, who lives in sepulchral seclusion (""petrified"" as a sandrose) since the disappearance-death of her brother, Habib. Rachel is removed, protectively, from the scene by a documentary film maker but is used as a courier to Habib and responsible for the fatal consequences. Overblown nonsense which assumes that women haven't got the sense they were born with and does much to promote the possibility.
