Chile, August 2010. After a landslide, 33 miners are trapped in a mine in San José, 700 metres underground. During the first 17 days, they have no contact with the outside world, to the despair of their families. Starving, the group shares some packs of biscuits and tins of tuna, until they manage to give a sign that they are alive. It is the beginning of a rescue mission that will take over two months. The true story of 33 heroes in one of the most memorable events of the century. Starring Antonio Banderas, Rodrigo Santoro and Juliette Binoche.
