    • Synopsis
    • The Chilean coup of 1973.

      The masses are out on the street, protesting against General Pinochet. Amongst, them Daniel and Lena, a young couple, which like may others, gets arrested by Pinochet´s secret police. Shortly thereafter, Daniel finds himself trapped in an interrogation camp located underground, beneath the infamous Colonia Dignidad, a German sect following the leadership of the notorious Paul Schäfer.

      The Colonia presents itself as a charitable mission but, in fact, it is a place nobody ever escaped from. Desperate to rescue her boyfriend, Lena joins the mysterious cult, hoping to find Daniel there and make their way out.
