The old Colonel and his wife live in misery, waiting for a letter from the government informing them that they can finally benefit from the promised pension for his wartime services. The impoverished couple feed a rooster for cockfights, the only hope of survival. Time goes by and the letter does not arrive, confronting them with the dilemma of continuing to feed the rooster or eating it. The greed of the village, fate and the stupidity of war are all mixed with the old Colonel’s solitude, defeated by life but who still has two treasures: the love of his wife and his dignity.
