Screen date: May 9, 2011
Set during the depths of the Second World War, seven prisoners escape a Siberian gulag, only to discover that their fight for survival has only just begun.
Grueling barely cuts it as the newly “liberated” escapees head into a frigid Siberian winterscape on what will be a 6,500 km journey that they have little chance of surviving.
