El Rey 1960

Directed by José Luis Pomarón

A man finds a metal ring in a pile of scrap metal that matches the size of his head to crown himself king of the place. An unwelcome beggar arrives and finds another, shiny, and more royal crown. The "king" observes it and is envious of the symbol; he cannot allow anyone to try to take his place. He attempts to seize it, and they fight to the death. The "king," triumphant, keeps the crown.
