From director Paul Greengrass and inspired by real events, “The Lost Bus” is a white-knuckle ride through one of America’s deadliest wildfires as a wayward school bus driver (Matthew McConaughey) and a dedicated school teacher (America Ferrera) battle to save 22 children from the terrifying inferno.

Matthew McConaughey returned to the big screen after several years away from high-profile films with the world premiere on Friday of a new docudrama, “The Lost Bus,” at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Inspired by Lizzie Johnson’s book on the real-life tragedy of the 2018 Camp Fire, the deadliest wildfire in California history that claimed 85 lives, the film offers a glimpse into the intensity and magnitude of the destructive fire.
McConaughey said the film explores the subject of the relationship between humans and Mother Nature. “The message is in your face and the reality is in your face,” McConaughey told Reuters ahead of the film’s premiere.
“To me, the story is deeply about a human journey, about resilience and also about choices,” Ferrera said.
McConaughey’s real-life son, Levi, and mother, Kay, play his character’s son and mother.
