Society of the Snow depicts the real-life tragedy of the Flight 571 plane crash in 1972 that killed 29 people. Here’s a breakdown of the Society of the Snow cast.
The brutal but brilliant Society of the Snow landed on Netflix on January 4, 2024. The JA Bayona movie documents the Uruguayan flight crashing in the remote heart of the Andes in 1972, forcing survivors to become each other’s best hope over the course of 72 days without rescue.
The movie is based on the 2008 novel La Sociedad de la Nieve (Society of the Snow), written by Pablo Vierci—a classmate of the plane crash survivors. It’s a brilliant film, too, and has even picked up a couple of Oscar nominations.
Everyone involved in the movie does an incredible job of portraying such a terrible turn of events, and the actors deserve a lot of recognition. So, here’s a full breakdown of everything you need to know about the cast of Society of the Snow.
