What happens

La Terre des taureaux (La Tierra de los toros) est un film franco-espagnol réalisé par Musidora en 1924. Il s'agit d'un documentaire-fiction explorant la vie des élevages de taureaux destinés à la corrida en Andalousie, vu à travers les yeux d'une journaliste-enquêtrice. Tourné sur les terres du torero-rejoneador Antonio Cañero, ce film marque un tournant dans la carrière de Musidora, qui exerce pour la première fois un contrôle total sur sa création.
