Synopsis:

Belmonte is a documentary recorded from the homonymous dance show created by Cesc Gelabert and Lydia Azzopardi. The show builds an allegory about the world of bullfighting from the mythical figure of Juan Belmonte (1892-1962), but without being a biography of the bullfighter or a figurative description of the runs, but an explosion of music, dance and emotion.

Awards:

Winner of an Award, at Butaca Awards of Theatre, Spain, 2011: Best Dance Show
