Lone Survivor
Only one soldier survived an ill-fated raid in the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan, Lone Survivor is his story. Experience Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell’s harrowing account of Operation Red Wings with the release of Lone Survivor on digital home entertainment or Blu-ray and DVD.
Adapted from Luttrell’s New York Times best selling novel of the same name, Lone Survivor recounts in grim detail the June 2005 military mission that claimed the lives of three of his four-man SEAL team.
Sent to track notorious Taliban leader Ahmad Shah, Luttrell (portrayed by Mark Wahlberg) and his team of elite soldiers (Taylor Kitsch, Emile Hirsch and Ben Foster) are deployed to Afghanistan on Operation Red Wings. Trouble arises when the team encounters a group of Afghan civilians and, after capturing them, is forced to make an impossible decision that will ultimately decide their fate.
What follows is a grueling fight for survival, as the team battles unthinkable odds to stay alive. The incredible camaraderie between the four men is uplifting amidst the brutality, and is sure to strike a chord with audiences everywhere.
Featuring moving performances by an all-star cast, including supporting actor Eric Bana, writer-director Peter Berg’s dramatic reconstruction of Luttrell’s tale of survival is not only a sobering insight into modern-day combat, but also a testament to the power of the human spirit when it is pushed to the limit.
‘Lone Survivor’ is available now on digital home entertainment, Blu-ray and DVD.
