A true and fascinating story.

On 24th of August 2001 A Canadian pilot , Robert Piché, saved the life of 306 persons when the airplane was loosing kerosene, he managed to keeep cool and glided the plane during about 2o minutes to a safe place in the Azores.Robert Piché is not a common pilot, beffore this exploit he has a criminal past (he was in jail for smuggling) and was an alcoholic. So this Canadian film tells the life Robert Piché before the famous filght oNo 236 of Air Transat and then the exploit of Robert Piché, Dirk de Jager and the crew during this flight from Toronto to Lisboa. The role of Robert Piché is played by the well know French Canadian actor, Michel Côté ,I have seen him in "La vie après l'amour" (2000) and Omertà (2012). It's really a very good film with great moments of suspense.
