Based on Laura Hillenbrand's 2010 nonfiction book, "Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption," this film tells the story of Louis "Louie" Zamperini — a runner who competed in the 1936 Summer Olympics and later became a prisoner of war during World War II. Despite the terrible conditions of the POW camps, Zamperini miraculously survived, and he went on to run a leg of the Olympic Torch relay for the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan, not far from where he was held.
