Sinopsis

Colombian teenagers study the traditional art of bullfighting in the sleepy town of Choachi. They live and train in an oasis of teen aged camaraderie and dreams for the future. But when bullfighting becomes banned in Bogota, the boys' sanctuary slowly becomes susceptible to society's larger struggles of class and conflict. Inspired by the watchful eye of retired bullfighter Nicolas, the bullfighting students strive to succeed first as Matadors, then as role models themselves. Interpreting bullfighting as a living metaphor for personal, social and historical struggles, the film focuses on the individual experiences of these boys and their mentor as they try to break free of the bleak future being dictated to them by Colombian society.

El director Pablo Berger nos introduce en el territorio de lo grotesco y lo fantástico a través de esta fábula basada en el famoso cuento de los hermanos Grimm, que utiliza los elementos de la España castiza de la época para crear una atmósfera tan original como la propia concepción del film: en blanco y negro y sin diálogos. Una vuelta a los orígenes de cine a través de unas imágenes poderosas acompañadas de una partitura original.
