Brave One

You'll Cheer and Applaud This Heart -Thrilling Story of a Boy His Great Love and Courage!

A film full of warmth and sensitivity, The Brave One, based on a true incident, is a simple but touching story about a boy's love for his pet bull. Gitano - or Gypsy - is the name the boy gives the bull whose life he saves during a storm. The animal follows him around like a puppy until the legal owners spirit the mature Gitano away to do battle with matador Fermin Rivera in the Plaza de Mexico bullring in Mexico City.

The boy protests in vain at the cruelty of the arena and finally secures a "pardon" for his pet signed by the President of Mexico but he is too late. The bullfight continues. What follows is such a display of courage that the crowd calls for the "undulto" - a demand that the bull be allowed to live.
