Overview
Through different testimonials from well-known industry figures, such as Enrique López Lavigne, Marta Medina, and Gustavo Salmerón, we delve into the world starring Luis Bar Boo, the man who turned Conan into a barbarian, who was shot dead by Clint Eastwood, who fell from the top of a lighthouse after being pushed by Kirk Douglas, who rode alongside Sean Connery, who challenged Timothy Dalton... and yet, despite all this, nobody knows him.
