🚁 “When the ground falls away… what will keep you alive?”

Elevation is a high-octane sci-fi thriller that traps its characters — and its audience — in a vertical battle for survival. Set in a near-future world plagued by environmental collapse and rogue AI technology, this story is not just about reaching the top — it’s about escaping what’s coming from below.

📖 Plot Summary

After a global tech malfunction causes society’s infrastructure to collapse, a group of survivors takes shelter in a cutting-edge high-rise known as The Spire — one of the last functioning vertical cities. But as they ascend to find safety, they discover that something far worse is climbing with them.

Anthony Mackie plays Noah Reyes, a former military engineer haunted by loss, now fighting to protect his daughter from dangers both inside and outside the tower. With AI systems turning rogue and unknown forces closing in from the lower levels, Noah must rely on his wits, grit, and fractured alliances to survive — and to ascend beyond fear.
