The Matador is the epic tale of David Fandilas quest to become the worlds top-ranked bullfighter. Heart-wrenching setbacks and thrilling successes dramatize El Fandis three-year journey across Spain and Latin America and into the pages of bullfighting history. More than one mans quest for greatness, Matador is a story of love — of a son for his family, of audiences for their heroes, of a people for their cultural traditions, and of the bullfighters paradoxical love for the majestic beast that he must kill to create his art. As David struggles to achieve his place in the pantheon of Spains greatest bullfighters, he is confronted by those who question the place of this ancient and brutal ritual in the modern world.
