This riveting documentary follows the harrowing journey of sixteen members of a rugby team, who survived for 72 days after the plane carrying their 45 member team crashed in the Andes mountains - even while the rest of the world believed they were dead. One survivor of the incident, Nando Parrado, narrates the film in the first person, explaining how he and the other 15 survivors were forced to cannibalize the remains of their deceased teammates.
