About The 12th Man:
This breathtaking action adventures tells an incredible true-life story of heroism and a man’s unbreakable will to live. Norway, 1943: after a failed anti-Nazi sabotage mission leaves his eleven comrades dead, Norwegian resistance fighter Jan Baalsrud (Thomas Gullestad) finds himself on the run from the Gestapo through the snowbound Arctic reaches of Scandinavia. It’s a harrowing journey across unforgiving, frozen wilderness that will stretch on for months – and force Jan to take extreme action in order to survive. With gut-punching realism and vivid psychological immediacy, director Harald Zwart pays tribute to one man’s extraordinary courage – and to the everyday heroes who helped him along the way. Jonathan Rhys-Meyers costars.

On January 23rd at 6pm, the Marines’ Memorial and the Royal Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco will show this inspiring film at the Marines’ Memorial Club in San Francisco.  Following the viewing, a panel discussion will feature the director and producer, Harald Zwart, producer Veslemøy Ruud Zwart, and actor Jonathan Rhys-Meyers.

This event is free and open to the public.

This event is presented by Marines’ Memorial Association & Foundation and Royal Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco
