The Rescue (12A)
Dir. Jimmy Chin, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, US, 2021, 114 mins.
From the Oscar-winning filmmakers of Free Solo, this is the edge-of-your-seat account of the rescue of 12 Thai school boys and their soccer coach from a flooded cave system in 2018. Vasarhelyi and Chin reveal the perilous world of cave diving, the bravery of the rescuers, and the dedication of an entire community that made great sacrifices to save these young boys. With exclusive access and never-before-seen footage from the rescue, the film tells the story of the imagination, determination and unprecedented teamwork displayed during this heroic mission with life-or-death stakes. Not your average Christmas Week movie but if anything captures the incredible spirit of community and the human drive to help others in peril, then this fits perfectly.
