In 1979 East Germany, as the government’s control intensifies, two families risk everything to escape to the West. Their audacious plan involves building a homemade hot-air balloon. After their first attempt fails and crash-lands near the border, they must quickly construct a new balloon while desperately trying to outwit the ever-watchful Stasi, who are determined to stop them.
