La pel?cula de Netflix La sociedad de la nieve, est? nominada a los premios Oscar 2024 por Espa?a.

Se cumplen cincuenta a?os de una de las historias m?s incre?bles jam?s contadas. Si fuera ficci?n resultar?a inveros?mil, pero es y fue verdad.

En La sociedad de la nieve, publicada originalmente en 2008, todos los sobrevivientes hablaron por vez primera desde que el 13 de octubre de 1972 un avi?n de la Fuerza A?rea Uruguaya se estrellara en la cordillera de los Andes. Iban a bordo cuarenta y cinco personas, diecis?is de las cuales fallecieron en el acto o pocas horas despu?s. Con alrededor de veinte a?os, a cuatro mil metros de altura y treinta grados bajo cero, sin abrigo ni comida, la relaci?n entre v?ctimas y sobrevivientes se invirti? y solo regresaron con vida diecis?is En esta nueva edici?n especial por el aniversario del accidente, los sobrevivientes narran no solo lo que sucedi? sino, fundamentalmente, lo que nos pas?


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Fifty years after the Andean tragedy, sixteen survivors tell the story of how they overcame the insurmountable trauma.

On October 13, 1972 an Uruguayan Air Force plane crashed in the Andes. Forty-five people were on board. Many died on impact, or in the hours following the crash. At over 4,000 feet above sea level, under temperatures of -22 F, and without shelter or food, the line separating victims and survivors was increasingly blurry. Only sixteen of them would make it out alive.

Pablo Vierci--a close acquaintance of many of those onboard--tells us about the survivors and the victims: where they came from, what they were doing preceding the crash, their experience in the mountains, including the decision to commit cannibalism, the expedition that found them, the days following their rescue, and the life after the tragedy. All of this, from the accounts of those who managed to create a society different from any other, driven by the will to survive.
