What Is Compañeros About?
The premise of Compañeros without spoilers.
Fate binds them, greed ties them, and violence drives them into partnership. Arms dealer Yolaf Peterson tries to sell weapons to guerrilla leader Mongo, but the payment is locked in a bank vault whose code only Professor Xantos—held by the Americans—knows. Yolaf frees Xantos, Basco beside him, while his ex John ‘The Wooden Hand’ plots against them.
