Checco Varese, ASC (Director of Photography) shot the soon to be released feature, THE 33, directed by Patricia Riggen and starring Antonio Banderas, Oscar® winner Juliette Binoche and Rodrigo Santoro. Shot entirely on location in Chile's stunning Atacama desert and deep within the mines of Colombia, THE 33 follows the extraordinary real-life survival story that captivated the world's attention in 2010 -- the catastrophic collapse of the Copiapó gold and copper mine and miraculous rescue of all 33 miners after 69 days trapped 800 meters below the surface of the earth, under a megaton boulder twice the size of the Empire State Building.
