The five most cruel torturers of the Pinochet dictatorship are serving sentences totaling centuries in a prison at the foot of the Andes mountains. The place has a swimming pool, gardens and aviaries, and the prisoners are watched by guards who look more like their employees. When a television crew interviews one of the inmates, his statements have an unexpected impact. Fearing a transfer to a common prison, the convicted will do their best to remain there, unleashing a wave of delirium and violence in the middle of the mountains.
