From legendary filmmaker, Werner Herzog, comes the incredible true story of Rescue Dawn. In 1997, Herzog made the documentary Little Dieter Needs to Fly, which told the extraordinary story of a German-born American Navy pilot, Dieter Dengler, who crash-landed in Laos during the Vietnam War. He was imprisoned in a POW camp and brutally tortured. He then engineered an amazing escape with the other inmates, both American and Vietnamese.
"1965, aube de la guerre du Vietnam. Lors d?une mission secrète, Dieter Dengler, pilote de l?armée américaine, est abattu au dessus du Laos. Retenu prisonnier en pleine jungle, l?ennemi lui inflige les pires tortures et humiliations. Décidé à lutter pour sa vie, Dengler organise l?évasion?"
"The optimistic and eager Lt. Dieter Dengler is sent on a classified mission to bomb certain targets in Laos in 1965. With him are his fellow pilots including his best friend Spook. Denlger is shot down and captured, interrogated, tortured, and placed in a prison with fellow inmates Duane, Gene, Phisit, and Procet. The living conditions are deplorable and the men are starved and chained together. This situation makes it possibile of caring for bodily functions negligible and the moral is low. Dengler changes that using his ingenuity and immediately plans for escape. Duane aids Dengler but Gene fears the consequences of an aborted escape attempt. Dengler's expertise and cunning makes escape into the jungle essentially successful. The jungle, eventually, reduces the force to one. As Dengler is rescued he is left with the ghosts of his fellow inmates, a factor that will haunt him and alter his life after rescue. Based on a true story."
