What it’s about. 1965 wird der Pilot Dieter Dengler auf einer streng geheimen Bombenmission über Laos abgeschossen. Nach einem qualvollen Fußmarsch landet er schließlich in einem höllischen Gefangenenlager tief im undurchdringlichen Dschungel Vietnams. Um dem sicheren Tod zu entgehen, bereitet der furchtlose Deutsch-Amerikaner akribisch einen Fluchtplan vor und avanciert so zum Hoffnungsträger für seine Mitgefangenen. Nach dem gelungenen Ausbruch beginnt jedoch eine wahre Odysee für die Männer. Unter tragischen Umständen verliert Dieter Dengler seine Begleiter und gelangt bald an seine körperlichen und mentalen Grenzen. Nach Wochen wird er völlig ausgehungert von U.S.-Soldaten gerettet und zum gefeierten amerikanischen Kriegshelden.

Who’s in it. Rescue Dawn stars Christian Bale as Dieter Dengler, Steve Zahn as Duane, Toby Huss as Spook and François Chau as Province Governor, among others.
