Juan Rulfo

A very poor and handicaped man, lives in a small town in Mexico with his mother. He works announcing things along the town ("The priest lost his cow, if someone sees it ..."). He is very interested in the cock fightigs. One day a man gives him a looser cock, thinking to give him something to eat, but instead he takes care of the animal and it becomes a winner cock. (imdb)

A poor, but very lucky man in the cock fighting, is hired by a rich man, but both are in love with the same woman.

An experimental film in which time breaks again and again at the moment of death, where the seconds become whole lives condemned.
