The Shepherd

Anselmo, a middle age shepherd, lives a poor but happy life in a small, run down house in the middle of the Spanish plains, near a small, but growing, village. His dog Pillo and his sheep are his only company. A life bucolic enough for him to ignore the offers he receives from a construction company who want to buy his house and land to build a new residential complex. Conflicting against Anselmo’s unwillingness to sell is Julián and Paco’s greed, the owners of the neighbouring lands, who only answer to their own interests. A bloody metaphor of the greed that corrodes those who do not answer to reason in their quest to get what they want, and the violent, but inevitable, consequences of their actions.
