Bullfighting, an ancient tradition of unprecedented cruelty, as seen through the camera lens of Albert Serra. On one side, the tension and violence of the arena; on the other, the breathtaking extravagance of the costumes and the tormented gaze of the bullfighter. From a distance, the audience's enthusiasm for what seems to be a rock opera, also (above all?) depicts a certain type of toxic masculinity. Andrés Roca Rey, star of the bullfighting world, takes up almost all the space with his arched body, impossible postures and fevered face. A magnetic character, he takes us, fascinated and disgusted, through this breathtaking, visceral and meditative work.
