El porvenir is a 2015 short documentary film directed by Alfredo Alcántara and Josh Chertoff.

[1] El porvenir is an inside look at the world of Mexican cockfighting, where men and roosters meet at the intersection of life, death, and sport.

This short documentary follows Abelardo Olguín Cuevas, a third-generation Mexican cockfighter struggling to hold on to his family's traditions in the face of a growing movement to ban the sport across the country.

The film explores Abelardo's day-to-day life in Ixmiquilpan, Central Mexico, from his farm, where he trains his roosters, to the cockfighting tournaments.

The film does not aim at answering any moral or ethical questions but rather explore the world of the passionate Mexican cockfighter.
