Exploring and exposing the extent of the extremely violent and sadistic celebrations in Spain was long overdue, and thus this movie a very important initiative. It shows the horrible reality of what really goes on behind the events, usually glorified as "tradition", "art", or "culture", and will shock any viewer to the core.
