Siberian gulag escapees walk 4000 miles overland to freedom in India.
I am Inspired
I am inspired to observe the passionate journey taken by many to merely SURVIVE!
Trivia:
The film is based on a memoir by Slavomir Rawicz depicting his escape from a Siberian gulag and subsequent 4000-mile walk to freedom in India. Incredibly popular, it sold over 500,000 copies and is credited with inspiring many explorers.
However, in 2006 the BBC unearthed records (including some written by Rawicz himself) that showed he had been released by the USSR in 1942.
