Unfortunately, Wilson, a rescue dog, has been lost after likely spending some time with the children after finding the clues which led to their rescue.

This doesn’t need to be a quick to Netflix movie doc

Let HBO (yeah I said it) handle this as at least a 6 episode miniseries
Do NOT concentrate on the rescuers - this needs to be 80% about the kids, 15% about their tribe and only 5% about rescuers or politicians or whatever
EP should probably be Craig Mazin , but director should at least be Colombian

This does sort of remind you of the story arc surrounding "Yellow Jackets" except less amount of children involved, their survivors are younger, and the amount of time they spent being lost in the jungle or forests wild was a little over a month compared to 19 months in the case of the storyline in the TV series.

There are other significant differences, too but explaining that would likely ruin the show for people who haven't seen it or watched it yet.

Very sad about the dog but what an incredible story!

I like the way you think, I would also go as far as having HBO donate a generous amount of money to a trust fund for these kids so that they don’t have to struggle in the future. And I concur with @Madmarsha. it’s sad about the dog.

And/or a Gofundme or some such. The odds alone of surviving a plane crash. The odds alone of surviving the Amazon.

0 percent about politicians. 5 percent about Wilson and the rescuers.

I think the fact that they are Colombian, and live in the region has a lot to do with the fact that they survived. Love to find out the backstory on whether or not the father had any influence in the way these kids managed to survive for 40 days.

No doubt and, of course, the older siblings used to taking care of the younger. But nothing prepares you for surviving a plane crash.

Wow
That certainly makes a tragic story way more horrible

Regardless of whether not he did, in the movie their father will be played by Danny Trejo and have flashback training montages.

Poor little things, can you imagine them waiting with their mother?
I'm amazed that the baby was ok.
