Neon Bull

Synopsis

Iremar is a cowboy on the vaquejada, a travelling rodeo in Brazil, where he rubs chalk into the bulls’ tails so the riders can grab them more easily and bring the animal down onto the sand. He lives in a truck with Galega, who dances in nightclubs, and Cacá, her young daughter. In the evenings Iremar sits down at his sewing machine and makes Galega’s costumes.
