In 1862, daredevil balloon pilot Amelia Wren teams up with meteorologist James Glaisher to advance knowledge of the weather and fly higher than anyone in history. But they face physical and emotional challenges in the thin air, as the ascent becomes a fight for survival. Based on the historic balloon flight which Glaisher made with Henry Coxwell when they ascended to almost 39,000 feet, the fictional character of Amelia is based on the real life balloonist Sophie Blanchard.
