'Tránsitos' emerges from a desire to film the San Fermin festival in Super 8. Pamplona becomes a theatre where everyone dresses in red and white, where it feels like everything revolves around a panting bull in a portrait of the decadence of one world and the birth of another.

Suddenly, some 200 riot police appear, ready for action. The members of the clubs, children and adults alike, take refuge as best they can in the stands and throw everything they can at them. There are many injuries. When the forces of "order" finally withdraw, more indignant people gather in the streets. It is then that Germán Rodríguez is shot dead. The battle rages on throughout the night. Hundreds are injured, many by firearms.
