Unbroken

Based on the 2010 non-fiction book by Laura Hillenbrand entitled Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption, this incredible film tells the story of Louis "Louie" Zamperini, a runner who competed in the 1936 Summer Olympics and later became a prisoner of war during World War II. Despite the terrible conditions of the POW camps, Zamperini miraculously survived, and he went on to run a leg of the Olympic Torch relay for the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, not far from where he was held.
