Synopsis[]
New Santiago, the newly built capital city of Chile, suffers a devastating earthquake. While local authorities have been able to rescue most of those trapped under rubble, little hope remains for 5 bank executives stuck in a sealed vault underneath the city treasury. With a diverted river now channelling a torrential landslide of mud towards the city, it's a job for International Rescue to get them out in time.
