Afternoons Of Solitude

A Film by Albert Serra

2024 - Spain/France/Portugal - Non Fiction - 125 min.

with Andrés Roca Rey , Antonio Gutiérrez , Francisco Durán , Francisco Gómez & Manuel Lara

Portrait of an active bullfighting star, Andrés Roca Rey, which allows us to reflect on the intimate experience of the bullfighter who assumes the risk of facing the bull as a personal duty out of respect for tradition and as an aesthetic challenge. This challenge creates a form of ephemeral beauty through the material and violent confrontation between human rationality and the brutality of the wild animal.
