Four real episodes told by their protagonists: Antonio Mejías "Bienvenida" tells the serious goring he suffered in the Plaza de Las Ventas and his recovery process. Álvaro Domecq Romero evokes the last days of the life of the mare "Splendid", the noble animal that was brave and sensitive companion of his father.
