Faith in bullfighting is a personal photographic project that collects intimate moments of promising young men in the art of bullfighting (they are called "Novilleros", because they are bullfighters who deal with steers - bulls of less weight and age). They are not famous or well-known bullfighters. They are young people trying to find an opportunity in this world. Most of them are Catholic believers, with a deep faith that one day the opportunity to succeed in the world of bullfighting will come.

Story

Faith in bullfighting is a personal photographic project that collects intimate moments of promising young men in the art of bullfighting (they are called "Novilleros", because they are bullfighters who deal with steers - bulls of less weight and age). They are not famous or well-known bullfighters. They are young people trying to find an opportunity in this world. Most of them are Catholic believers, with a deep faith that one day the opportunity to succeed in the world of bullfighting will come. The project has tried to capture the moments of prayer and concentration before, during and after fighting in the bullring. It is the work of a year following young "Novilleros" and apprentices from bullfighting schools. Bullfighting is an ancient tradition in Spain and the season runs from March to October.
