Being a teenager is tough. Especially when you have to live in the jungle and carry an assault rifle. Eighteen-year-old Gabriel and his twin sister, Samantha, join the revolution after death squads murder their parents and ransack their small village. A new totalitarian regime has taken control of the country, and as the army moves through the countryside - leaving destruction in its wake - it becomes clear to Gabriel that no matter which side you're on, nobody wins. The rebels face daily hardship and live under constant fear of counter-insurgency patrols, and Gabriel learns the hard way that the most dangerous threats can sometimes come from within. But adversity forges character, and Gabriel finds a mentor in the form of Sergeant Yos, his immediate superior and former soldier who left the army under mysterious circumstances. Armed with nothing but cold war relics and bravado, Gabriel and Samantha lead the rebels' efforts to take back their land, as long as their luck holds and they don't run out of ammo. Hell-bent on stopping them - and squashing them under his booth - is an army major with few scruples and zero qualms about destroying the young insurgent group, whatever the cost. Can Gabriel and the rebels hold out long enough to make a stand against an implacable foe, or will they be crushed under the weight of the largest military in Central America? Set against the backdrop of the beautiful Cuchumatan Mountains and the lush, green countryside of the Guatemalan highlands, Insurrection is a glimpse into the lives and emotions of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, in the name of love and country.
