DUBAI // Peter Weir's The Way Back has been chosen to lead the Dubai International Film Festival's "Cinema of the World" programme screening on December 15, it was announced yesterday.
Inspired by Slawomir Rawicz's novel The Long Walk: The True Story of a Trek to Freedom, the film is an adventure story chronicling the escape of a small group of multicultural prisoners from a Stalinist gulag during the Second World War.
The film features a cast including Colin Farrell and Ed Harris and marks the first venture for Weir, a six-time Oscar-nominated director, since the Russell Crowe success Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World.Source
