Documentary visit to a backwoods mexico community. Colorful village bull-riding event * Music by the "Banda Salinas".

Native hospitality at the house of Nahuatl-language-speaking hammock makers; making the tortillas in the traditional way, likewise, the hammocks. We are off to the rodeo! and the rest of the fiesta in honor of the town's saint. The preparations are completed, and the rodeo announcer presents the daring bull-riders by name. Everyone takes of his sombrero for the rodeo prayer. The rhythmic and melodic songs of the Banda Salinas fill the stadium and illustrate the preparations each rider makes, as well as accompanying his wild ride, whether it results in a "queda" (stay) or in a "porrazo" (fall). The colorful event is adorned by the faces of the public, ordinary Mexican country people, out having a good time. In the early morning of the next day, an encounter with some guys who have been drinking all night.
