Thus begins a treacherous 4,500-mile trek to freedom across the world's most merciless landscapes. They have little food and few supplies. They don't know or trust each other. But together, they must withstand nature at is most extreme. Their humanity is further tested when they meet a teenage runaway who begs to join them on their quest. A compelling testament to the human spirit, this gripping wilderness adventure is "Peter Weir at his hypnotic best" (Telluride Film Festival).

True StoryThe story is true. Despite the claims. They later found that a man, not the one who wrote book, is the actual man that completed the so called long walk.Score: 5/5

Watch itSaw this in cinema and have to say, it was really good. I enjoyed the storyline and the acting was phenomenal. An emotional movie, it had me moved and the friends who I saw it with thought it was also a good movie. Definitely worth watching..Score: 4/5

BORING!!!Terribly long movie. Had no likeable characters and had you more worried about when it was going to be over than what was going to happen to them. Very little music in the movie, and A LOT of silent walking. Considering that the story wasn't even true, it just makes it that much worse..Score: 2/5

The Way BackGreat story of an epic journey! Whether or not it was true, it was a unique tale of a prison escape set against some beautiful wilderness scenes. It held my attention the whole time!.Score: 4/5

True or not, it is still an inspirational filmI wonder why some people watch films… I watch them to be entertained (and occasionally informed) and this is an extremely riveting film, showcasing some spectacular scenery and with some powerful performances. I suppose what happens is that people want to be like the professional reviewers and find fault in everything they see… it is all a matter of perception. Whether or not this film is based on a true story or not is neither here nor there, it is surely based on the dreams of hundreds of thousands who suffered in the gulags and mines of Siberia dreaming about freedom, the very same freedom that most of us seem to take for granted - just like Mryan points out! Looking for a documentary, look elsewhere. Looking for Oscar performances, look elsewhere. Looking for a film that will raise your spirits, look no further..Score: 5/5

Loved it!Beautiful story, great acting! Not sure not it’s a true story! But it definitely kept me entertained..Score: 5/5

След седемгодишно отсъствие от големия екран, шесткратно номинираният за Оскар австралийски режисьор Питър Уиър ("Обществото на Мъртвите Поети", "Шоуто на Труман", "Господар и Командир") се завръща с реалната история, базирана по мемоарите на полския лейтенант Славомир Равич - "Дългата Разходка". Филма Бягството разказва за група полски войници (Колин Фарел, Ед Харис, Джим Стърджис), който успяват да избягат от сибирска каторга през 1942 година и поемат дългия път към свободата, прекосявайки Сибир, пустинята Гоби, Тибет и Хималаите, за да стигнат до Индия.

Drama, založené na skutečné události z roku 1940, popisuje útěk mezinárodní skupinky vězňů z ruského gulagu. Uprchlíci se vymaní ze sevření nelítostné sibiřské zimy, projdou oblastí jezera Bajkal a překročí Transsibiřskou magistrálu. Před sebou však mají ještě mnohem krutější zkoušky lidské odolnosti a vůle, poušť Gobi, Himálaje a Tibet. Zachrání se až po 4 000 mílích v Indii. Film Útěk ze Sibiře je založen na pamětech Slawomira Rawicza popisujících jeho útěk ze sibiřského gulagu. Spolu s tisíci dalšími vězni podstoupil Rawicz krutý tříměsíční transport do pracovního tábora na Sibiři.

1941, syv krigsfanger flygter fra den frygtelige sovjetiske Gulag-lejr. Igennem 11 måneder kæmper de sig over 6.500 km fra Sibirien over den glohede Gobi-ørken i Mongoliet og videre over Himalaya bjergene. De tvinges igennem en udmattende overlevelsekamp mod det barske terræn, sult, tørst, sol og frost. Men de kæmper også en indre kamp for att træffe de vanskelige valg, der udfordrer samvittigheden, når mennesket presses til den yderste grænse og kæmper for sin frihed.

Während eines wütenden Eissturms nutzen sie ihre Chance und setzen das waghalsige Vorhaben in die Tat um. Um endlich Freiheit und Frieden in ihren jeweiligen Heimatländern zu finden, begibt sich die Gemeinschaft auf eine 4000 Meilen lange Reise durch die Mongolei, die Wüste Gobi und das Himalaya-Gebirge – eine übermenschliche Kraftprobe, bei der die Integrität der Gruppe mehr als einmal auf dem Spiel steht...

Adaptación de 'The Long k: The True Story of a Trek to Freedom' de Slavomir Rawicz. El protagonista narra en primera persona cómo, tras la invasión de Polonia por los alemanes (1939), fue arrestado por el ejército soviético y encarcelado en Siberia; cómo, después, consiguió escapar del gulag (campos de concentración de la Unión Soviética) en compañía de otros presos y, finalmente, cómo huyendo a pie llegaron desde Siberia al Himalaya, al desierto del Gobi y, atravesando el Tibet, acabaron estableciéndose en la India. Recientemente, varios historiadores han puesto en duda la veracidad de esta historia.

Toiseen maailmansotaan sijoittuvien tapahtumien keskushenkilö on puolalainen sotilas Janusz, joka tuomitaan vakoojana Siperian pahamaineiselle vankileirille. Erämaan ja kylmyyden saartamassa vankilassa hallitsevat venäläiset rikolliset, eivätkä heikoimmat selviä äärimmäisissä olosuhteissa. Janusz ryhtyy pian suunnittelemaan pakoa ja hänen ympärilleen muodostuu tiivis poliittisten vankien rinki. Tiimin vahvin voima on vaitelias amerikkalainen, Mister Smith. Mukaan pakomatkalle hivuttautuu myös rikollisjengin kovanaama Valka, murhamies, joka ansaitsee paikkansa pakoremmistä ainoastaan puukkonsa takia.Vangit onnistuvat pakenemaan leirin piikkilanka-aitojen läpi ja eksyttämään koirapartiot kannoiltaan. Pian he ovat vapaita miehiä jäisessä metsässä. Pako johtaa Siperiasta ensin Mongoliaan ja lopulta Tiibetin kautta Intiaan. Matkaa kertyy 6 500 kilometriä. Elokuva perustuu puolalaisen Slavomir Rawiczin muistelmateokseseen The Long Walk.

Français
En 1940, une petite troupe de prisonniers décide de s’évader d’un camp de travail sibérien. Pour ces hommes venus de tous les horizons, s’échapper de cet enfer ne sera que le début de l’aventure… Ensemble, ils vont parcourir plus de 10 000 kilomètres, à travers la toundra sibérienne glacée, traversant les plaines de Mongolie, les fournaises du désert de Gobi puis les sommets de l’Himalaya pour franchir la Grande Muraille de Chine. Certains s’arrêteront en chemin, d’autres ne survivront pas aux épreuves. L’Inde – alors sous contrôle anglais – est le but ultime. Mais la route est longue, les rencontres risquées, les conditions physiques épouvantables, et chacun a ses secrets.

A szabadság felbecsülhetetlen értékű kincs, és az ember akár a lehetetlenre is vállalkozik, hogy visszanyerje azt. Ez a gondolat jár a fejében néhány hadifogolynak is, amikor eldöntik, hogy megszöknek a szibériai gulagból, és bármi áron is, de hazajutnak. Hat rab indul útnak, hogy eljussanak Indiába, köztük az amerikai Mr. Smith, az indulatos orosz, Valka és a fiatal lengyel srác, Janusz, valamint hozzájuk csapódik egy árva lengyel lány, Irena, aki szintén az életéért menekül. 4000 mérföldet kell megtenniük gyalog a Takla-Makán sivatagon és a Himalája fagyos csúcsain keresztül. Az út a biztos halállal egyenlő, a kis csapat szökevénynek azonban ez az egyetlen esélye, hogy újra szabad emberként éljenek.

Polski
W 1940 roku grupa śmiałków pochodzących z różnych krajów ucieka z sowieckiego gułagu. Bez mapy czy kompasu uciekinierzy podejmują się niemożliwego - od Syberii, przez tajgę, wyżyny Mongolii, pustynię Gobi, Tybet, Himalaje docierają aż do Indii. Niezwykła podróż przez 6000 km pełna jest heroicznej walki o przetrwanie. Pomimo różnic kulturowych i barier językowych przyświeca im wspólny cel – chcą odzyskać utraconą wolność. Nie sprzyjają im mordercze mrozy i nieznośny upał. Przemierzają pieszo najbardziej niezwykłe i niebezpieczne rejony świata, ucząc się przebaczać i odzyskiwać utracone w gułagu człowieczeństwo.

Academy Award® winner Robin Williams (Best Supporting Actor, GOOD WILL HUNTING, 1997) delivers an extraordinary performance in one of the most compelling motion pictures of all time. Williams stars as English professor John Keating, a passionate iconoclast who changes his students' lives forever when he challenges them to live life to the fullest and "Carpe Diem" -- seize the day! Keating's unconventional approach meets with irrepressible enthusiasm from his students, but the faculty at staid, exclusive Welton Academy prep school is, to put it mildly, not amused.

Picnic At Hanging RockDrama1975

This sensual and striking chronicle of a disappearance and its aftermath put director Peter Weir on the map and helped usher in a new era of Australian cinema. Based on an acclaimed 1967 novel by Joan Lindsay, Picnic at Hanging Rock is set at the turn of the twentieth century and concerns a small group of students from an all- female college who vanish, along with a chaperone, while on a St. Valentine’s Day outing. Less a mystery than a journey into the mystic, as well as an inquiry into issues of class and sexual repression in Australian society, Weir’s gorgeous, disquieting film is a work of poetic horror whose secrets haunt viewers to this day.
