Фильм основан на реальных событиях и рассказывает об американце Луи Замперини, который принимал участие в Олимпийских играх 1936 года в Берлине. Он не одержал победу в финальном забеге, но, по какой-то причине, снискал расположение Гитлера, который пригласил его к себе в ложу. Предполагалось, что Замперини примет участие и в следующих Олимпийских играх, но из-за начала Второй мировой войны он был вынужден отправиться на фронт.
