Tengo miedo torero

In Pinochet's Chile, an ageless, nameless transvestite prostitute meets a young guerrilla who gives him some boxes to hide. The old man seems to profit from the pleasing side of this hopeless encounter in which he discovers that he has a political conscience.

Rocked to the sound of sentimental songs and carried by the poignant performance of Alfredo Castro, Tengo miedo torero tells the tale of an impossible love under a dictatorship. Adaptation of the only novel written by queer communist icon Pedro Lemebel.
