Summary:
"Trainee bullfighter Angel, sexually repressed and mother-fixated, is taunted about his suspected homosexuality by his instructor, Diego Montes. To prove his masculinity, he attempts to assault Diego's girlfriend. Failing in his attempt and consumed by guilt he confesses to murderes he did not commit - the victims are killed with bullfighting instruments at the moment of sexual climax. Agnel is defended by lawyer Maria Cardenal, the real killer, who is obsessed with Diego and uses Angel to draw the maestro Matador into one last confrontation."
