Stranded January 16, 2009

At once emotionally draining and spiritually moving, Stranded has won audience and critics' awards internationally, including grand prize honors at Amsterdam's International Documentary Festival.

Readers around the world made Alive, the harrowing true story of members of an Uruguayan rugby team surviving for months in the frozen Andes after a plane crash, into a best-seller in 1974 and a successful Hollywood movie in 1993. This visually breathtaking new film brings the 16 survivors together to relive their ordeal, revisiting the crash site (known as the Valley of Tears) and recounting the acts of endurance they experienced. (126 mins., 35mm)
