Encierro

Thousands of people come to the streets of Pamplona every year to succeed in one of the most dangerous runs of honor with a bull at your back. The passion for this unique challenge, which is connected with the annual celebration of Saint Fermin, is passed from one generation to another in Spain. This holiday of bulls in the streets tests courage, pride and luck of men dressed in red and white, who perceive the adrenaline event involving provoking the bull as a question of personal honor. The documentary combines interviews with veterans as well as with amateur runners about their thorough physical and mental preparation preceding the run for their lives, and archival materials describing the roots and meaning of this festive event.
