Ramp films often make a big impression with viewers anyway, let alone if it is a true story. This is because it is with Society of the Snow (2023). The fierce Netflix film about an airplane crash in the Andes sits with many subscribers: “An impressive film adaptation of the world-famous story. Absolutely recommended!”
Flight 571 from the Uruguayan Air Force, which had to fly a rugby team to Chile, crashed in 1972 on a glacier in the heart of the Andes. Only 29 of the 45 passengers survived the crash. Now that the rest are in one of the world’s roughest environments, they are forced to resort to extreme measures to stay alive.
