Going on a flight to Chile, where the champion is held, the Uruguayan rugby team participates in, turns down the life of 45 passengers whose plane crashes on Andes Mountains, where they struggle against survival in such a hard atmosphere, as they suffers from the hard nature, the thing that leads them to live on the flesh of their dead friends.
Although written in a fairly pedestrain fashion, the movie does a good job of raising the "What would you do?" issues. Me, I'd be chomping blindly, hoping to ingest the dead first.
There are better real-life disaster flicks out there... and the flesh looks remarkably like chicken.

An overlooked gem, made even more powerful by the fact that it is based on a factual incident.

Recriação fiel do trágico acidente ocorrido em 72, o filme explora interessantes questões morais e é eficaz ao dramatizar a luta daquele pequeno grupo por sua sobrevivência.

Intense, based-on-a true-story survival tale is riveting.
