A young group of teenage soldiers and rebels—bearing names like Rambo, Smurf, Bigfoot, Wolf and Boom-Boom—keep watch over an American hostage, Doctora (Julianne Nicholson) on a remote mountain in Latin America. The young commandos perform military training exercises by day and indulge in youthful hedonism by night, an unconventional family bound together under a shadowy force know only as The Organization. After an ambush drives the squadron into the jungle, both the mission and the intricate bonds between the group begin to disintegrate. Order descends into chaos and within Monos the strong begin to prey on the weak in this vivid, cautionary fever-dream.
