Olympian Louis “Louie” Zamperini, along with two other crewmen, survive in a raft for 47 days after a near-fatal plane crash while on a bombing raid in WWII, but it is when they are caught by the Japanese and sent to prisoner of war camp that Louis’ endurance test really begins. A rather ‘worthy’ dramatisation of the man’s biopic. 

The harrowing true story of the crew of the USS Indianapolis, who were stranded in the Philippine Sea for five days after delivering the atomic weapons that would eventually end WWII. As they awaited rescue, they endured extreme thirst, hunger, and relentless shark attacks.
