Don't Lose Faith.

4 / 5

The Guardians of the Galaxy team line up

Directed by J. A. Bayona.

On October 13, 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, chartered to take a rugby team to Chile, crashes into a glacier in the heart of the Andes.


J. A. Bayona's adaptation of the tragedy that was Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 is a visceral and haunting look at survival in the most adverse conditions imaginable.


Some sequences are genuinely more terrifying than most horrors. The film balances unavoidable darkness with the hope and determination of the human spirit in a wonderful celebration of life.


An immersive and devastating story told with care without shying away from the gruesome details that make this one of the most striking survival stories of all time.
