THE RESCUE

THE RESCUE

When 12 young soccer players and their coach were trapped by monsoon floods inside a cave in Thailand, the world watched for 16 days as reporters gave updates from outside the rescue zone. Now we gain a perspective that no journalist could capture, through the eyes of Thai and international rescue divers and never-before-seen footage. Even if you think you know this story, The Rescue is full of new revelations and delivers a dose of inspiration like an adrenaline shot.
