Netflix’s Society of the Snow recounts the harrowing true story of the 1972 plane crash in the Andes that killed 16 people on impact and left 29 passengers struggling to survive in an inhospitable environment. The second one-minute teaser shows the moments before the plane carrying Uruguay’s Old Christians Club rugby team crashed into the mountains.
Director J.A. Bayona co-wrote the screenplay with Bernat Vilaplana, Jaime Marques, and Nicolás Casariego, based on the book by Pablo Vierci. Speaking with Netflix, Bayona described his path to making the film.
“I discovered the book while we were preparing The Impossible, and I immediately thought that I wanted to make it into a film,” said Bayona. “We put the project together over a period of more than 10 years, developing an approach to the story while working closely with Pablo Vierci.”

Netflix has revealed a second teaser for Spanish director J.A. Bayona's latest film Society of the Snow, which premiered at the 2023 Venice Film Festival. Based on a true story, which was already turned into the movie Alive in the 90s. In 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, which had been flying a rugby team to Chile, crashed in the heart of the Andes mountains. Only 29 of the 45 passengers survived. Trapped in one of the most hostile and inaccessible environments on the planet, they have to resort to extreme measures to stay alive. A story of endurance and perseverance in the extreme.
