"Society of the Snow," a new film on Netflix, retells the harrowing story of the Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 crash in the Andes, previously depicted in the 1993 film "Alive." Both movies portray the survivors' struggle for survival, but "Society of the Snow" offers a darker, grittier, and more realistic portrayal, with a mostly Uruguayan and Argentinian cast. While both films depict the crash and the survivors' decision to consume the flesh of the deceased, neither delves deeply into the psychological and spiritual aspects of the survivors' actions.
