Twenty years ago, a group of young enthusiasts decided to unite their passion for bullfighting and create a club that, without knowing it, would end up marking the history of their town.
Two decades later, that dream has transformed into a family that has overcome difficulties, grown with each president, and achieved seemingly impossible goals.
To celebrate its twentieth anniversary, the club has prepared one of the most ambitious events in its history: a running of the bulls with twenty bulls, accompanied by a day full of emotion, tradition, and passion for the world of bullfighting.
In this short film, we will explore its origins, hear from its founders, and experience firsthand a day that is already part of the town's collective memory and the tradition of bullfighting in the streets.
