After a mysterious catastrophe, the world split in two: for some, gravity pulls downward, while for others — upward. Patema, a fearless princess of an underground civilization, one day falls into the sky. She is saved by Age, a boy from the surface where people are forbidden to look up. Their meeting marks the beginning of a friendship that will overturn the laws of physics.
A vivid animated film that clearly demonstrates how two opposing truths are often far from enough to reach a balanced conclusion — and sometimes both sides may turn out to be wrong.
