The second of two-home movies produced by John Scott Forsyth of bullfighting taking place in the commune of Hagetmau in southwestern France filmed while on a trip to Lourdes. As with the previous film, a large crowd watches as a series of matador’s take on a series bulls for their entertainment.
Inside a stadium, a number of matador’s, some on horseback come into the arena. A series of matador’s take on bulls, sometimes on their own, other times in pairs. In the centre of the arena a lone matador holds out his cloak which the bull charges at. Spears now pierce the bulls back as it continues to charge the matador.
The now exhausted bull is corner by three matadors, one of whom uses a sword to thrust it into the bull skull. The matador’s wave at the crowds who applaud the spectacle. The film ends on the start of another bullfight.
