A deadly miscalculation saw F 571 crash directly into the Andean mountains to devastating consequences: the body of the plane broke violently into two its floor torn to smithereens; seats flew out of the air taking passengers with them. In the weeks that followed the remaining people who were on board - the society of the snow - emerged to fight a dire gruelling battle for survival. Waiting for a rescue team that didn't arrive the survivors became fewer and fewer in numbers.
