Synopsis

This is the story of a five year-old little girl who believes all the animals are taller than she is. A story with a cheap Andalusian, a bullfighter, an ice-skater, a taxidermist, a teacher, a parricide attempt, an adultery, an attack of nerves, a German mastiff, quintuplets, scars, beauty marks, a touch of madness… while a 475 kilos bull is paying himself a curative ride as he is coming out from the slaughterhouse. This is the story of that journey. –Cannes Film Festival
