The Spanish film is on the Oscars shortlist for the International Feature Film Academy Award, going up against other big competitors like Anatomy of a Fall and The Zone of Interest.ย 

For Netflix, it appears Society of the Snow might be peaking at a good time, as the film just pushed to the top of the Netflix Top 10 Movies list in the United States. Tuesday’s edition of the list sees Society of the Snow surpass Equalizer 3 to take the number one overall spot. It appears the film is doing well on a global scale as well, as it was the number one non-English language film on Netflix from January 1st through January 7th.
