  • José Antonio Ruiz

Night makes every mistery, every illusion, every impossible dream. A man wants to be a great bullfighter and hopes, under the full moon silver lighting, his dreams to be as real as his desires.

During the night, as the moon crosses the sky, a part of it or maybe itself as a woman, wakes up the one that is dreaming and, dancing, shows him the path of love and death. It will be an affair, a fight between light and darkness, silver and blood, flesh and soul, reason and the madness of an ideal that is being lost, which escapes in the shadows.

[Text from the programme of 1991, Luna Park, Buenos Aires (Argentina)]
