After 25 years dedicated to bullfighting, the Spanish bullfighter Juan José Padilla retires. He does it in Zaragoza, where 7 years ago he suffered a serious mishap, which put his life in danger and made him lose the vision of an eye. Precisely because of this, since then it has been called "Pirate".
With an uncommon fortitude, he fought again and, against all odds, reached new goals: to lead the ranks of the matadors, to open the Puerta del Príncipe.
It is a living example of what can the will, the effort, the courage, not surrender to the difficulties.
