When The Bull Cried

whenthebullcried

When the Bull Cried offers a poetic look on a mystical mining camp high up on a Bolivian mountain, where life evolves around tin. Men and women of all ages search for their luck in the belly of a powerful peak, which they rip open with dynamite. Work in the ice-cold mine-shafts is heavy and dangerous, so the miners ask ‘El Tio’, the Lord of the Darkness, for protection by honouring him with copious amounts of alcohol. When the mountain eventually stops rewarding them with mineral, life gets even tougher, so they prepare for an offer to pay it back.
