Stuart Diver was the only survivor of a watery landslide that engulfed the small ski town of Thredbo in the Australian Alps. Diver clung to life for three days, with his dead wife beside him, while awaiting rescue. The movie portrays the anguish he went through, the reactions of his family, and that of his wife's parents, and the bravery and dedication of his rescuers. There are many poignant moments in the film and I doubt that any viewer would not be moved at least once. My only criticism is that the movie tends to focus too narrowly on the sole rescue, with not enough information given about the tragedy as a whole.
