À l'occasion de la préparation d'une exposition en hommage au peintre Victor Pellerin, disparu mystérieusement en 1990 après avoir détruit l'ensemble de son œuvre, la réalisatrice Sophie Deraspe tente d'en apprendre davantage sur le passé de ce personnage énigmatique et sur son éventuel présent. Cette quête l'amène à rencontrer ceux qui, à Montréal notamment, ont côtoyé de près Victor Pellerin (de son vrai nom Luc Gauthier) avant sa disparition. Le spectateur y apprend notamment que Pellerin est également poursuivi par la police pour avoir participé à un trafic de faux tableaux. On suit de près, tout au long du film, Eudor Belzile, initiateur de ce projet d'exposition, ingénieur de formation, artiste d'adoption, proche de la famille du « disparu » et qui semble en savoir plus que les autres sur le destin de Victor Pellerin. À la toute fin, l'équipe de tournage embarque d'ailleurs avec lui vers la Colombie, où Belzile vit à l'écart du monde, peut-être en compagnie de Pellerin.

Taking place in 1521 on the coast of Mexico, a group of Aztecs worships and makes sacrifices to a pair of living Tyrannosaurus rex. A group of conquistadores led by Hernán Cortés later arrive on the location and venture into the forest to make camp. One of the Tyrannosaurs crosses the path of one of the conquistadores and devours his horse. His fellow conquistadores do not believe his story and continue to venture through the dense forest. An Aztec who is not aware of the Tyrannosaur is eaten, while another witnesses the event with an expression of deep horror and surprise. Later, the conquistadores try to kill the tribe of Aztecs, but are put to sleep by a hidden Aztec with a tube of tranquilizer darts. Hernán Cortés surrenders and demands a truce, but realizes they cannot understand him. He murmurs to himself that they are savages, not realizing the chief can understand English, and is knocked out. Once he regains consciousness, he meets an English-speaking female Aztec. She tells him the Aztecs call the Tyrannosaurs "Thunder Lizards". Later, Hernán Cortés is offered up as a sacrifice, but is freed by his new friend, Gria. It is revealed that of Hernán's fault, the female, who was the chief's daughter, was consumed by one of the Tyrannosaurs.

The daughter's marriage is postponed when a Tyrannosaur kills an Aztec girl. The conquistadores set out on a mission to kill the Tyrannosaurs with cannons and muskets. They succeed in killing the male at the loss of one of their companions. At night Cortez and his soldiers rob the temple of gold and try to escape to the coast. They leave lieutenant Rios and sergeant Mendoza to the mercy of the Aztecs as they had become to friendly with them.
