In and around Tultepec, near Mexico City, a religious celebration is held, usually in March every year. Part of that event features an array of fireworks, the likes of which is seen nowhere else in North America. Thousands of hand-fired salute rockets--more volleys of rockets fired in one hour than most people will see in a lifetime; Mexican style 8" strobe shells, the best in the world; fantastic, crazy, pyrotechnic bulls run through the streets emitting zillions of stickless rockets which fly everywhere while crazed festival-goers dance and dodge among them; incredible towering daylight Castillos with pyro driven mechanical figures, wheels and girandolas; nighttime competition Castillos, without a doubt the finest lancework, colors, and effects done anywhere in the world. Very high quality digital shooting and editing by John Werner. 54 minutes, 4 chapters
