Their fate is also their destiny.’

But the assassination of a federal policeman and an unexpected confrontation with a mysterious secret from his past set in motion a chain of events with far-reaching consequences.Bullhead is an exciting tragedy about fate, lost innocence and friendship, about crime and punishment, but also about conflicting desires and the irreversibility of a man’s destiny.
