La Sociedad del la Nieve (2023) Society of the Snow.
AKA "how to write a film review without mentioning their gastronomic delights"
This is a Uruguayan film about their rugby team's airplane crash over the Andes, and the ultimate survival for 70 plus days without food in 1972.
Its a marvellous film and sensitively made about what could be a sensational and quite frankly an horrifying story. I have deliberately avoided any reference to the main talking point of the movie to remove sensationalism on my part.
The initial crash is absolutely terrifying and sets the tone of the movie. Along with the ongoing danger that the elements throws at them is relentless.
Likewise the isolation and the internal dialogue of the crash survivors of the decision that they have to make is thought provoking.
The joy at the end, when they are rescued is uplifting and very real along with the sad realisation of their friends they have left behind.
I believe there have been numerous films made of the crash and this is a worthy.
