The last matador

When the last bullring in Catalonia has been turned into a mall, an old bullfighter must make a living in the bars of Barcelona. One night, a bored Russian president appears trying to freshen up his long vacation. In a flash, still the urgent desire to try his luck as a hero before it's too late.
