From it's Wiki page.

It is based on the experience of MarÃ*a Belón and her family in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. It features an international cast including Naomi Watts, Ewan McGregor and Tom Holland in his film debut.

The film received positive reviews from critics for its direction and its acting, especially for Watts who was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role.

I saw The Impossible at the cinema on New Year's Day, 2013, when it was released.

It's a powerful and emotional drama about a family affected by the 2004 tsunami, with excellent performances from Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts, and a young Tom Holland, and the recreation of the tsunami is astonishingly realistic.

I have seen it a couple of times at home and it is always a tough, but rewarding watch.

The new one is a two disc affair with a feature length doc on the second disc about Carolco
Single disc.
It just says the title, his face and a mountain cough.

Congratulations.

That's the 2012 release. You've managed to find an edition that's not listed on DVDCompare.

I much prefer that original artwork to the newer remastered edition.
