It tells the true story of José Tomás Boves, a cruel man who became a legend during the Venezuelan War of Independence, the most violent in the Americas.

Spanish by birth, he spearheaded a grass roots troop of slaves, mulattoes, Indians and mestizos that crushed Simón Bolívar and his patriot army.
