Manolete (A Matador's Mistress)

"A Matador's Mistress" is a tragically eloquent dance of the cold brutality of uncommitted love and the high stakes of the Bullfight. Immerse yourself in the culture of Spain surrounding the age old traditions of the Matador. While the bullfight is controversial by today's standards, the ancient art-form is depicted with unflinching realism. The story is of man against beast, the bullfighter's zen, if you will; his nightly dance with death. A world-class lover enters his world; their code is their truth. Life being lived, edgy, relentlessly flirting with disaster, untamed, beautiful... The film starts in the trip from Sevilla to Linares, where Manolete stops in Cordoba to see his mother. He will be remembering some passages of his life. Director: Menno Meyjes Writer: Menno Meyjes Stars: Adrien Brody, PenElope Cruz and Nacho Aldeguer Loading Watchlist View Watchlist >> New List
