On a May day in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber plane went down into the Pacific Ocean and vanished, leaving only a spray of junk and a trail of oil, petrol, and blood.

A story on one man's struggle to survive and forgive. Louis Zamperini was a young man when his WWII plane crashed and he was forced to survive on a raft with two other men. After reaching land and being taken prisoner by the Japanese, he endured years of torture and turmoil, on both a physical and an emotional level. When he was finally released, he then struggled with forgiveness. His story is very inspirational.
