The series opens in Andalusia, Spain, during the early 1970s. Young Ángel Peralta (played as a youth by Carlos Serrano) is already showing an extraordinary gift for working with horses – but his family’s expectations weigh heavily on him. His older brother Rafael Peralta (Jaime Lorente) is brash, charismatic, and seen as the natural inheritor of their father’s legacy as a rejoneador (mounted bullfighter).

The main story follows the brothers’ rise. Ángel discovers an unbreakable bond with a wild, untamable horse he names “Azabache” (Jet Black). Unlike Rafael, who sees animals as tools, Ángel treats Azabache as a partner. A local breeder, Don Fermín (Fernando Cayo), recognizes Ángel’s rare gift and offers to mentor him – but only if he breaks away from Rafael’s shadow. untameable+season+1+episode+1+top

Tension escalates when Rafael, jealous of Ángel’s quiet success, forces him into a dangerous public exhibition.

The episode ends with the brothers parted, but a phone call from their dying father forces them back together – setting the stage for a turbulent partnership that will define Spanish rejoneo.
