This photo shows the collapse of Torrero Alvaro Munera, as he realized in the middle of his last fight… the injustice to the animal. “And suddenly, I looked at the bull. He had this innocence that all animals have in their eyes, and he looked at me with this pleading. It was like a cry for justice, deep down inside of me. I describe it as being like a prayer - because if one confesses, it is hoped, that one is forgiven. I felt like the worst shit on earth.”

Álvaro Múnera est un ancien torero colombien reconverti en défenseur des droits des animaux, né le 19 novembre 1965 à Medellín. Devenu paraplégique à l'âge de 18 ans après s'être fait encorner lors d'une corrida à Munera (Espagne), il se convertit en opposant à la corrida. Il est membre du conseil municipal de Medellín.
