Luis Guridi, Santiago Aguilar aka La Cuadrilla
Justino, an old man just retired as a "puntillero" (short dagger - the person responsible for finising off the bull) in a bullring, has discovered an advantageous way of dealing with his leisure time, without forgetting his last profession.
His friendship with Sansocito, an "almohadillero" (pillow seller) interweaves with an uncommon criminal career. Instead of marginalizing him, his deeds return him back to society. Even though he is not pushed by money, he has found an easy way of making it.
