The film, directed by Andrew Lau, is inspired by a true story from May 2018. On a Sichuan Airlines flight, the cockpit windshield suddenly shattered while the plane was at 30,000 feet above the Tibetan Plateau.
The Captain
As a commercial airplane pierces the clouds at 30,000 feet, a pilot and his team spring into action to secure the safety of the passengers and navigate an emergency landing.
