Fernando Arrabal writes and directs this post-apocalyptic religious parable about a small group of punk rockers living in a junk yard on the periphery of a nuclear pothole. Desperate for food, the malnourished survivors face constant harassment from corrupt government officials. As the group awaits a performance by their prophet Emanou (Alain Bashung), who fronts a punk band and pledges to lead them out of the darkness, treachery threatens to fracture their unity and destroy their community.
