“Belief opens the door to miracles.” The forthcoming survival drama Society of the Snow marks the long-awaited return of award-winning filmmaker J. A. Bayona to the Spanish-language movie landscape.
The film is an adaptation of Pablo Vierci’s factual book about the 1972 Andes flight catastrophe, in which a few of Uruguayan rugby players survived 72 days of brutal torture, starvation, and treacherous mountainous weather. The fact that 16 out of 45 passengers were rescued is a miracle in and of itself, and the accident has frequently been hailed as such.
Everything that is known about Society of the Snow at this point is that they intend to attend the 2024 Academy Awards.
