ABOUT THE FILM:

In Spanish with English subtitles. 

Desperate to escape poverty, villager Dionosio Pinzón restores an injured rooster to health and starts pitting it in cockfights. When the bird proves to be a fierce competitor, the money begins rolling in and Dionosio abandons his humble roots to cultivate the trappings of wealth, forgetting that everything that goes up also must come down in the depressing nothingness of his town.
