Rescue comes alive on Imax screen

Rescue 3D  plunges audiences into the hard work of saving lives in the face of a natural disaster. 

Behind the scenes, the film follows a Canadian naval commander, two pilots, and volunteer rescue technician as they train for action. 

When an earthquake strikes Haiti, creating one of the biggest humanitarian disasters of the century, the audience is swept along, joining with the massive effort that brings military and civilian responders and hardware from around the world.  

From the ground and from the air, the film highlights scenes that are both heart wrenching and heartening—some of the first real-time disaster coverage ever shot with an Imax camera.

Rescue 3D immerses audiences in the training and mindsets of individuals who answer the call of those in need, and at the same time, brings home the vital importance of organized global response to natural disasters. Rescue 3D showcases real-world disaster and emergency response captured and delivered with unprecedented scale and impact on the giant screen.
