Stranded: I've Come from a Plane That Crashed on the Mountains
Stranded: I've Come from a Plane That Crashed on the Mountains
This compelling documentary masterfully combines archival footage, interviews and reenactments to tell one of the most astonishing and inspiring survival tales of all time.

On October 13, 1972, a rugby team from Montevideo boarded a plane for a match in Chile. Within hours, the plane crashed on a remote Andean glacier. Two days before Christmas, 16 of the 45 passengers were rescued.

Decades later, the survivors return to the crash site to recount their harrowing experience of defiant endurance and imperishable friendship in what is a hauntingly powerful and spiritually moving film.
