Vikingo

In the Dominican Republic, cockfighting is the national sport. One of the best-known breeders is Jón Ingi Gíslason, a farmer’s son from Iceland. This is his story, and the story of Gabriel, a shoeshine boy who dreams of owning a cock from the Vikingo farm and becoming a famous gallero like Jón Ingi.
