''Society of the Snow'' (Spanish: ''La Sociedad de la Nieve'') is a 2023 Spanish-language survival drama directed by J.A. Bayona (''Film/TheImpossible'', ''Film/TheOrphanage''). It tells the true story of Uruguayan Air Force flight 571, which crashed on a glacier on the Andes mountains in October 1972 while en route to Santiago, Chile. 12 people died in the crash, including the pilots. The other 33 were left stranded in an unknown area of perpetual snow and no vegetation, without supplies or survival training. The survivors, many of them members of a rugby team traveling for a match, along with their friends and relatives, have to work together in order to survive their harsh surroundings. And most are so young that this is their first travel abroad and have not even seen snow before in their life.

Originally the survivors claimed that Lagurara asked for a gun in his suitcase to commit suicide and they insisted that, though they didn't find the case until days after he died, they didn't help him die in any manner and (probably) wouldn't even if the gun had been available, because they considered it murder. This left the co-pilot no choice but to bleed and freeze to death, as he couldn't be unstuck from the cabin controls. However by 2023 active voluntary euthanasia is legal in Spain, and passive euthanasia is in most of South America. So the choice to leave it out altogether clearly has as much to do with respect for Lagurara's memory and his family as it is to not make the survivors look cruel in the eyes of the audience.
