We have eight clips from director Juan Antonio Bayona’s The Impossible to share with you today.  Starring Naomi Watts and Ewan McGregor as the parents of three boys, The Impossible centers on their family vacation in Thailand which is devastated by a tsunami. Having survived, but finding themselves separated, the family members search for each other amidst the chaos, encountering strangers caught up in the same situation along the way.  Hit the jump to watch the clips.

Check out the clips for The Impossible below, followed by the film’s synopsis:

Here’s the synopsis for The Impossible:

Maria (Naomi Watts), Henry (Ewan McGregor) and their three sons begin their winter vacation in Thailand, looking forward to a few days in tropical paradise. But on the morning of December 26th, as the family relaxes around the pool after their Christmas festivities the night before, a terrifying roar rises up from the center of the earth. As Maria freezes in fear, a huge wall of black water races across the hotel grounds toward her. Based on a true story, THE IMPOSSIBLE is the unforgettable account of a family caught, with tens of thousands of strangers, in the mayhem of one of the worst natural catastrophes of our time. But the true-life terror is tempered by the unexpected displays of compassion, courage and simple kindness that Maria and her family encounter during the darkest hours of their lives. Both epic and intimate, devastating and uplifting, THE IMPOSSIBLE is a journey to the core of the human heart.

  1. This outstanding protrayal of a family of 5, who witness and have this catastrophic event rip through their lives is incredibly power, gripping, and so very very real that it litterly transported me right to the scene and i road on the tip of every word, motion, and emotion like you were virtually in Thailand living this nightmare. So so Powerful. I have never been gripped by a movie like this and I am 54 years old and consider myself an avid movie goer. I litterly gasped and almost lost my breath from the first 5 minutes. Tears litterly streamed down my cheeks off and on until I was almost paralyzed from the experience. Unbelievable directing from start to finish. Like no other. Thank you for this very human story.
