Synopsis/Details
1812, Colombia - Quique Villota and his father, Domingo, are royalist caudillos in support of Spanish rule. Running one of the largest cattle farms in the llanos, they are contracted to supply the Spanish army with meat and horsemen.
Rebels begin to hijack Quique's meat shipments and kill his llaneros. He counters the problem by having any captured rebels butchered and made into poisoned decoy shipments. Quique's seventeen year-old son and experienced cattle butcher, Adriano, is assigned this gruesome task.
Adriano discovers his father's infidelity one evening and alerts his mother, Shary. The violent episode ends with both Shary and Quique's mistress dead. Quique is savagely killed and then cannibalized by Adriano.
Domingo learns of Adriano's demonic act and has him punished mercilessly. Practicing Candomble, a powerful Afro-Brazilian religion, Domingo curses Adriano to an eternity of roaming the llanos with a hunger for human organs.
Present Day, Colombia - Drug traffickers Coke and Donzel usa a steam-distill to produce several gallons of vapable ayahuasca oil. En route to meet their girlfriends (Josefa and Dixie) to hike the llanos, they begin shipping the ayahuasca to the U.S. disguised as cases of rum.
Inspector Vittoria Millan becomes aware of the group's trafficking and brings a tactical police unit to pursue them into the llanos. Both parties soon enter the former Villota Estate, breaking a wave of brutality.
