The Way Back

A daring duo of prisoners make a bold break from a Siberian gulag, braving treacherous landscapes and merciless weather conditions as they trek 4,000 miles to India in a quest for liberty.

Three men attempt to escape a Siberian gulag in 1940, joined by a teenage girl and four others who share their determination to flee the Soviet Union. Led by Janusz, a natural leader with wilderness survival skills, the group faces numerous challenges, including harsh weather, limited resources, and moral dilemmas, as they journey towards freedom.
