Dialogue

Nando: What good is God to us? Why would He let my mother and my sister die so senselessly? If He loves us so much, why does He leave us here to suffer? Antonio: You are angry at the God you were taught to believe in as a child, the God who is supposed to watch over you and protect you, who answers your prayers and forgives your sins. This God is just a story. Religions try to capture God, but God is beyond religion. The true God lies beyond our comprehension. We cannot understand His will; He can't be explained in a book. He didn't abandon us, and He will not save us. He has nothing to do with our being here. God does not change, he simply is.

Dialogue

Antonio: I think God would want us to survive. Strive to live. Gustavo: At all costs? Antonio: No. I mean, we shouldn't murder innocents to live. Gustavo: And what about our innocence? What's going to become of our innocence if we survive as cannibals?

Dialogue

Dialogue

Dialogue

Nando: [the search for the survivors has just been called off] Better go tell the others. Antonio: I can't. It'll kill everybody's hope. Nando: [sighs] Well, what's so great about hope?

Dialogue

Nando: [addressing the survivors] Okay, uh, I got something to tell you. Good news - they called off the search. Carlitos: [everyone objects and argues] Why the hell is that good news? Nando: Because it means we're gonna get out of here on our own.

Dialogue

Nando: Between these mountains somewhere there's a green valley. See these mountains over here? There's no snow on them. Roberto: Those mountains must be fifty miles away. You think you can walk fifty miles? Nando: If we have to, we will. Roberto: I can't. Nando: Yes, you can. Roberto: I can't. I'm not as strong as you. Nando: Do you know what it is that we've lived this long the way we have? Seventy days? That we climbed this mountain. You know what it is? It's impossible. It's impossible and we did it. I'm proud to be a man on a day like this. Alive. That I lived to see it, and see it in such a place. Take it in. I love you, man. Look, it's magnificent. It's God. And it'll carry us over every stone, I swear. I swear to you.

Dialogue

Dialogue

Roberto: We're gonna die, you know. Nando: Maybe. But if we die, we're gonna die walking.
