Synopsis
Londres, 1862. À Regent's Park, une estrade est dressée, sur laquelle trône une immense montgolfière. Pas moins de 10000 personnes sont réunies pour assister à un exploit : battre le record d’altitude de 23000 pieds, détenu par des Français. Le vol en ballon est entrepris par le scientifique James Glaisher, qui souhaite étudier les phénomènes atmosphériques afin de prédire la météo, et la pilote extravagante Amelia Rennes, hantée par le sacrifice de son mari lors d'un voyage similaire. Pourtant, leur expédition scientifique se complique rapidement. Alors qu'ils vont plus haut dans l'atmosphère que n'importe quel ballon auparavant, ils traversent plusieurs intempéries dont une violente tempête. Après avoir battu le record, Amelia souhaite redescendre sur Terre mais Glaisher désire aller encore plus haut dans le ciel, ce qui les met en danger. Désormais, ils en viennent à se battre pour leur survie.Actors

From 1943, Nazi Germany started working on terror weapons, the V-1 flying bomb and V-2 rocket while British Intelligence learns about a new secret weapon. Technical problems with the V-1 lead the Germans to create a manned version to ascertain the flight problems of the rocket but all the test pilots are killed flying it. Aviator Hanna Reitsch (Barbara Rütting) successfully flies and lands the V-1 prototype, discovering the problem (mechanical shifting of the rocket's weight and change of speed) and how to solve it, which leads to the mass production of the V-1.

After being released from prison after six years, ex-convict Brett Hanson becomes lost in a new and unfamiliar world of freedoms and responsibilities. Struggling to reconcile himself with his disastrous past, he embarks on a journey to his home of Southern Louisiana to reunite with the ex-wife he left behind, May (Maria Bello). Along this journey, he meets two teenagers: Martine (Kristen Stewart), a troubled 15-year-old who has just escaped her family, and Gordy (Eddie Redmayne), a geeky outcast desperately seeking acceptance. Martine and Gordy offer to give Brett a lift home, and on the ensuing road trip the three reflect on their own personal misfit status while discovering in themselves and each other the acceptance each so deeply desires. Brett weighs whether to start a new life or rekindle his love with May – he's not sure she'll take him back – while Martine reevaluates her relationships with boys and her family and Gordy struggles with his affection for Martine.

Tech Sgt. Danny MacCullough (Montgomery Clift), flight engineer of a C-54 nicknamed The White Hibiscus, is immediately ordered to fly with his crew from Frankfurt into Tempelhof Airport to deliver a load of coal. His friend Master Sgt. Hank Kowalski (Paul Douglas), a ground-controlled approach (GCA) operator, hitches a ride with them to his new station. Hank, a POW during World War II, resents the German people and goes out of his way to be rude and overbearing to them. Danny on the other hand is frustrated at being restricted to the airport because of the necessity of quickly offloading and returning to Frankfurt.
