This documentary has a very sombre tone and is almost forlorn in its retelling of the narrative. It gathers pretty much everyone who, in some capacity, was involved in this tragedy. From the survivors to people who were initially looking for them. If you have never heard this story, it will vex you as you hear one of them recall how he stared at the bodies of his mother and sister, whom he couldn't save. All that, even when you can see and hear the survivors, and fundamentally, be sure that not everyone died. If you are fascinated by the story of the crash beyond measure, this is even a bigger treat because, as I said, they convene everyone for an interview. Even the shepherds who discovered the pair that had traversed the mountains. The recreations of the events, despite being clearly made to cover the fact that they weren't working with a colossal budget, ironically give off more atmosphere of dread than the 1993 movie with Hawke. They almost seek to mimic how the recollections of the events might look for survivors with the added passage of time.
