A fantastic directorial debut in which we meet Fernando Pacheco, nicknamed 'Toro Negro' and 'El Suicida' due to his maniacal tendencies in the ring. A drug-addicted, alcoholic, abusive, bisexual bullfighter, his total disregard for his own safety reveal a man, unsure of his own age, with an amazing energy and character but whose relationships both with himself and with those around him are all explosively destructive. The sheer volatility
of his emotional state is superbly conveyed to us through an unflinching lens, creating a tension that even the cameraman becomes complicit with.
