The monks were 5 American GI's in cold war Germany who billed themselves as the anti-Beatles; they were heavy on feedback, nihilism and electrical banjo.
They had strange haircuts, dressed in black, mocked the military and rocked harder than any of their mid-60s counterparts while managing to basically invent krautrock, industrial, punk, and techno music.
The film won in 2008 the German TV Oscar.
