If you remember the kids, the soccer team, that got got stuck in that cave in Thailand back in 2018, well this film, this National Geographic documentary is about that story; it's The Rescue. We get to find out exactly who "they" are when people say, "They rescued them." If you think you know the story, you might not know all the harrowing details. Even knowing the outcome, The Rescue is truly gripping. It almost brought me to tears a few times. If you want to get into the mood, get a sense of who "they" are (recreational cave divers, people who go down into the dark depths for hours at a time in tight confining spaces, places if anything were to go wrong, well it's usually not good) then check out the documentary, Dave Not Coming Back on Netflix - another cave diving rescue mission of a different kind and from the title alone, not such a happy finish. It's good, but not nearly as captivating as The Rescue. This documentary will no doubt be nominated for an Oscar. Heck, it might even win. Catch it in theatres now.
