Under the burning sun, a solitary bull awaits tirelessly, whilst a man jumps deep into the darkest waters of his persona, in their common attempt to defeat death. In this visual poem, the massive body of a bull appears on the table of a meticulous taxidermist, having died in the hot sun in the middle of a bullfighting arena. Working with the body of an untamed animal, the man is inwardly transformed and finds in the animal's skin a way to cope with his own mortality and the transience of life. It’s the story of a double fate, the one of the man and the one of the bull, both doomed to succumb to their own restless natures.
