Oedipus the Bullfighter (Edipo Torero)

In 2030, Spain is in a political atmosphere in which the animal rights activism has been incorporated into the penal code.

As a consequence, Jacinto, also known as “Oedipus the Bullfighter”, has been placed in an asylum because of being a “bull killer” and his participation in a mob linked to the planning of clandestine bullfightings.

In parallel to Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex, Jacinto is very close to his mother Jacinta, the one who encouraged him to join the bullfighting culture. However, the presence of Teresa, the employee from the Taurine Rights Prosecutor, has such an impact on Jacinta that they both together are about to reeducate the “bull killer”.

 

RELEVANT DATA: Gabriel Olivares assures Edipo Torero is a “futuristic amoral fable from which each individual will come to a personal conclusion”.

Even though there is no apparent relationship between their plots, the main characters from Oedipus Rex and Edipo Torero do come close to each other as the story goes by.
