Legionario

A French Foreign Legionnaire is forced to return to his native Colombia to confront his past as a FARC guerrilla fighter.

Two brothers are separated by the Peace treaty between the FARC guerrillas and the Colombian government: Lobo, the younger sibling, remains in the jungle under the command of Ramses, their charismatic commander. John, the older brother, desperate for a fresh start in life, enlists in the infamous French Foreign Legion, an army of international mercenaries who serve France with no questions asked about their former lives or identities. But when word reaches him that Lobo has vanished without a trace, John is forced to return home to Colombia where the ghosts of his past await and and he has to come to terms with settling old scores and face the consequences.

The first feature film ever to be filmed in the actual camps of the French Foreign Legion
