Les Oreilles sur le dos
Fallout
A country on the Pacific seaboard of Latin America. The day the coup d'état fails, all Jacques can think of is getting the hell out of there as quickly as possible. He takes with him a thrill-seeking prostitute called Monica. The airports are closed. The coastguards are on full alert. Jacques calls his fellow mercenaries round him. They fell into a trap. Now, they have to find a way out and make sure they get paid as well. They ransack the villa of their corrupt employer, carrying off his priceless art collection. They now have a price on their heads. They hijack a bus. There is only one chance of escape: across desert, jungle and rivers to the Atlantic. The bus is abandoned in an ambush and they forge ahead on foot, carrying the paintings on their backs. In the jungle, they take a group of Indians hostage and force them to navigate a boat downriver. It's hostile territory. Even more savage is the suspicion and betrayal that become part of everyday life on the boat. The river swallows up the victims one after the other…
