Condor and the Bull, The
- Synopsis
- Villagers from remote hamlets high in the Andes join together with people from the roadside village of Ocongate to celebrate the Peruvian independence day. Festivities require that a wild condor be captured and pitted against a bull during a bullfight in the town plaza. The event reveals the power relations between the villagers of Ocongate and the highlanders, and of both of them to the Peruvian state.
