438 days are the miraculous account of the man who lived alone in the recorded history and for a long time in the sea – as reported to journalist Jonathan Franklin in dozens of special interviews.

On November 17, 2012, Salvador Alvaranga left the coast of Mexico for a two -day fishing journey. A vicious storm killed her engine, and the present pulled her boat into the sea. The storm picked up and exploded it to the west. When he washed the ashes on 29 January 2014, he arrived at the Marshall Islands 9,000 miles away from New York to Moscow Round Trip.

For 14 months, Alvarenga survived continuous shark attacks. He learned fishing with his bare hands. They built a fish mesh from a pair of empty plastic bottles. Separating the outboard motor, he fashioned a huge fishhuch. Using fish vertebrae as needles, they put their clothes together.

He considered suicide on several occasions – which included himself to present a packet of shark. But Alvaranga never failed to invent an alternative reality. He imagined a method of existence, which retained his body and mind for a long time for the Pacific Ocean, so that he could be tossed on a remote, palpable island, where he was saved by a local couple living alone in his own Pacific Island heaven.

Based on dozens of hours of interviews and interviews with their colleagues, search and rescue officers, the medical team saved his life, and remote islands sent him back to health, an epic story of existence, which is a all-only version of Pie’s imaginary life. 438 days for a man to avoid lost from 14 months lost in the sea is a study of flexibility, will, simplicity and determination for a man.
