"The Way Back" Poster
Jim Sturgess, Colin Farrell, Ed Harris and Saoirse Ronan star in the dramatic film The Way Back.
The Way Back Movie Synopsis: Under cover of a night-time blizzard, seven prisoners caught up in Stalin's Reign of Terror escape a Soviet Gulag in 1940. They are now free men and almost certainly, dead men… for their impending trek to safety defies any reasonable chance of success and the landscape they must cross is unforgiving. With little food or equipment, and no certainty of their location or intended direction, they embark on a journey that will present unimaginable hardship and drama.
Driven by base animal instincts - survival and fear - while relying on evolved human traits - compassion and trust - the group endures transformative experiences that are profound and abysmal, anguished and ecstatic. All the while, they abide by one unceasing mandate: keep moving, keep moving, keep moving...
