This is a really awesome true story, well known througout Latin America, specially for those over 30. USA made ther film ALIVE based on this story but was somewhat disliked by survivors because it was too "american" for them...you know, epic music, things that never happened, etc. It is a good movie though. Mexico made one in 1976, the first one after the tragedy that is bad but is somehow accurate and raw, with low budget and really bad special effects...Survivors and families considered it insulting. Society of the Snow, 51 years after the tragedy, changes that and won unanimous acclaim by survivors, their families and friends. Anyway, actual survivors Carlitos, Nando, Coche, Moncho, Daniel and Roberto make cameos. Carlitos one is emotional AF (he portrays his father and reads his own name), Moncho appears behind Liliana and Javier at the airport as they say goodbye to their family (Liliana took care of him while he was sick up in the Andes) and Nando opens the door for his in-movie father, himself, his mother and sister. Coche appears when they are talking about going to Chile at the bar, Daniel at the front row during the church scene and Roberto as a doctor behind movie Roberto when he is rescued.

This film is extremely realistic and sad, the director's attention to detail is impressive, the performances are fantastic, the plot, the story, the narration. That tremendous detail from the director that the narrator dies blew us all away. Numa's character is beautifully perfect, everyone sympathized with him and we died with him when he left. Very painful.!

Amazing reaction, thank you for sharing it. Thank you as well for watching it in Spanish. A few facts: Nando made quite a recovery because even when his head swelled with the impact, it was facing the cold metal of the plane when he was left outside because everybody was thinking he was dead or about to die. The cold served as a very cold ice pack to heal the swelling in his head and make him better. Diego Storm (who died during the avalanche) was another medicine student thought after the first night it was a good idea to bring Nando to a warmer area inside the plane. They really tried to make a fire but the winds were very strong and keep putting it down. Also, they didn't have much to burn and it would burn instantly, so instead they gave up the idea to make a fire and instead putting as many layers of clothing as possible. The idea Nando had to want to eat the bodies came out of anger that the pilots' negligence got them to be stuck in the mountain helpless. Let's not forget he lost his mum, sister and 2 best friends. Nando's anger it's what pushed him to want to get out of there no matter what. They were peeing black because of severe dehydration, the snow took ages to melt and the ice was burning their mouths and gums. Numa, when Marcelo died said: they have been waiting for a moment like that, a moment of peace. Marcelo after finding out the government stopped looking for them got very depressed and kind of lost hope. Some of the survivors say that they think when Marcelo was trapped in the snow during the avalanche he let himself die because he could not fulfill his promise that rescue was coming and all of those people were in that plane because he planned the trip. The guilt and despair kill him, the avalanche was just his way to let go of that burden. Fito was the one who thought of making water, glasses to protect their eyes from the reflexion of the sun in the snow and also chose the bodies that would be eaten along with his cousins Daniel and Eduardo. Fito was called the inventor. The cousins how the call themselves were those who carried the biggest burden of all, to know which friend they were eaten and cut that friend to be eaten. Carlitos, the young person who crashed into the suitcases with his car at the airport, was a spoiled child who came from a wealthy family. He was very spoiled, he even had a nanny, after this trip his perspective of life absolutely changed. In the plane, he was in charge of making sure there were not drafts in the plane or reduce the possibility of drafts using the suitcases and plane seats, he was very good at it. He also was the one who made the sleeping bag that Nando and Roberto used to protect them and sleep during their walk to Chile. They had so so so so many cigarettes because in Chile cigarettes were scarce and Javier Methol, the man who lost his wife in the avalanche, worked in a Tabaco company so thought it was a good business to take a lot of cigarettes and sell them in Chile. In those years if you went to Chile with a few dollars or had some out of the market products you were a millionaire. Chile was going through a horrible economical crisis. Numa did not get injured like that in the real events, someone walked on his leg by accident because of the lack of space in the plane and because he was not eating his body did not have much strength to recover from the bruise. He was the last one who died and his death pushed Nando and Roberto to say fuck it lets do this, let's save ourselves because no one else is going to. The others 14 left in the plane also had a plan b in case Nando and Canessa did not make it which was putting together another team to hike the mountains. The actual survivors loved this version more than the 1993 version, because it doesn't idolise the survivors as the heroes, instead recognises and considers those who died and their memory. In the alive version some families did not give permission to use the real rugby player's names. In this versions all the families were happy and satisfied with the way the story was told and gave permission. Reporters kept digging in a very nasty way how they survived, what did they eat, etc. The survivors were very secretive for respect to their death friends families, also ashamed and worry their families friends and the country would judge them. They had a press conference were they answered to reporters questions ONCE instead that addressing the situation 100000 times to every reporter who asked. They asked the reporters and people for respect of their choices considering the very harsh circumstances they had to face. Pancho Delgado (Numa's best friend in the movie was they one who spoke in this conference) He said that Jesus gave his blood and body to save the world so the survivors took their friends bodies and blood for them to be save. Pancho also asked the reporters to please not spoiled with yellow press and judgement an act that was sacred to them and something that was done for pure survival instinct. The actual survivors made a Kameo in the movie Nando, opened the door to the actor who played him at the airport, Roberto Canessa was one of the Drs in the Hospital when they got rescued, Coche Inciarte reading a newspaper in the bar Numa and his friends were, Daniel Fernandez in the church, Numa's real life nephew passing by Numa's house when he was entering and Carlitos, who read all the survivors names, were is different scenes. The house shown as Numa's house in the movie was actually his real house back in 1972. The reason why Zerbino would not leave without the suitcase it's because he hoped that tokens from the death people, like personal belongings such as jewelry, rosaries, ID's, letters written before dying were taking back to give to their families. That actually happened the real survivor refused to leave without the suitcase and when back home he personally went to each of the families homes of the passengers that did not survive to give them something that belonged to them, so the families even when not having their bodies back they could have something to remember them by. In the movie isn't shown but the rescue was in 2 stages. They had to rescue one lot of people that day and the next lot the day after. Some survivors had to stay another night waiting for the other helicopters to arrive. Those left behind the first day were left with food and a team of rescuers. A survivor said most of the rescuers were scared of them after seeing all the human remaining all over the place and made sure the survivors knew they had a gun. Also the smell and dirt was unbearable. Only one rescuer Sergio Diaz, I believe he is called, stayed in the plane with them that night, ate with them and advised them about what they were going to face after everybody knew they have eaten human beings. There is a man who was part of the search team that were looking for the plane during the rescue missions. His name is Claudio Lucero and he had made quite strong arguments in the media about how he believes the 27 people left alive in the plane after the crash planned and plotted maliciously all the events that happened to them to gain fame. He states they could have left the mountain days before the day they got rescued, but chose to stay longer and go through hunger and lost to become famous and earn money.

In reality, they had spent the night in Mendoza because of bad weather, so the flight was much shorter than Montevideo-Santiago. The captain was pressured to keep going (instead of returning to Montevideo), and he made the mistake of turning right into the mountains when he wrongly thought he was over Curico.

Numa, el último del grupo en morir, fue el narrador de la historia porque fue como un homenaje y un recuerdo a las personas "que no lograron regresar"... además la muerte de Numa fue el último gran estímulo para emprender la caminata final.

Hello, in the movie several survivors made a cameo. In the airport scene, the one who opens the door for Nando Parrado and his family is the real Nando, the one who reads the list of survivors is the real Carlos Paez, playing his father the plastic artist and painter Carlos Paez Bilaró, in the scene where Eoberto Canessa enters the hospital, the doctor behind him is the real Roberto. Greetings from Argentina.

En la película han participado varios de los sobrevivientes... por ejemplo el hombre que nombra a todos los sobrevivientes es en realidad uno de ellos, es Caritos Páez... representando a su padre en la historia real. Todos ellos ahora son empresarios... siempre han pertenecido a familias adineradas, todos tienen sus profesiones y les ha ido muy bien económicamente toda su vida... el padre de Carlitos Páez era un reconocido artista, pintaba unos cuadros maravillosos y era dueño de un lugar paradisíaco en Uruguay llamado CASA PUEBLO una edificación al estilo griego en las playas de Uruguay.
