A high-stakes action thriller that traps an unlikely hero in a deadly vertical rescue mission, balancing survival tension with personal stakes tied to family.

When a group of radical activists take over an energy company's annual gala, seizing 300 hostages, an ex-soldier turned window cleaner suspended 50 storeys up on the outside of the building must save those trapped inside, including her older brother.
