During the first week of the project i watched many films related to the topic. However the film 'Alive' - 1993 related to my project the most.
The scenario is about an Uruguayan rugby team stranded in the snow swept Andes and they are forced to use desperate measures to survive after a plane crash and eat the deceased passengers.
There are a few points i picked up on whilst watching the film...
- They burnt money to keep warm - demonstrating that money its vital
- They made an oath - they all promised to use the bodies of anyone that died
- Their spirits kept them going
- They worked strongly as a team
- They kept the valuables of the deceased so that they could pass onto the family members
- They also when they recovered from the ordeal - they errected a Cross in symbolism of a grave to respect the dead.
- They held religious type services before they consumed them. They said the Lords Prayer and Hail Mary prayer
