This Friday, August 5th, Lionsgate will be releasing a very interesting film called Cave Rescue, which is based on true events and stars several of the people who were involved with the real situation. With the theatrical, digital, and VOD release of Cave Rescue just a few days away, we’re proud to share an EXCLUSIVE clip that offers a glimpse at the titular rescue efforts. Check it out in the embed above!
Written and directed by Tom Waller (The Last Executioner) – with Don Linder and Katrina Grose receiving story credit – Cave Rescue has the following synopsis:
What’s it like to be trapped in a cave for 18 days? How does it feel to be part of one of the biggest rescue missions in history? When rising floodwaters trap a boys soccer team in a cave system in Thailand, an Irish cave diver (Jim Warny, as himself) joins the massive effort to save them. Shot at the original locations – and featuring real heroes involved in the rescue – this incredible saga based on true events is as close as you can get to experiencing for yourself the intensity of this inspiring adventure.
