Gravity loses its hold in this electrifying tale of early aviation where danger lurks behind every cloud. Two young aviators push their flying machine to the breaking point, battling storms and sabotage in the vast expanse above. It is a vertical race against death where one wrong maneuver could mean disaster. Feel the chill of the altitude and the heat of rivalry.
