In this hypnotic nightmarish adventure, five well-behaved teenage boys commit a horrific act. Their punishment is to go out to sea aboard a ship with a barbaric captain who is determined to tame their wild manes. Their destination is a supernatural island with lush vegetation and enchanting powers. What they don’t know is that the island harbors a terrifying secret.

In his feature debut Les Garçons Sauvages, director Bertrand Mandico creates a phantasmagoric visual feast. Les Garçons Sauvages is about boys who go rogue and get punished. The story is mixed with surrealist influences, excessive vulgarity and willfully transgressive behavior. The film is mysterious and enchanting. A story that cannot be explained in words, but what you have to experience on the big screen.
