Max Klein (Jeff Bridges) survives a devastating plane crash virtually unscathed, leads many others to safety, and then disappears – not only from the wreckage site, but from himself and his family. Max, having been brought to the threshold of life and death, doesn’t seem to be able to, or want to bring himself back from that threshold. The efforts of his family and another crash survivor may be the only connections Max has left to be able to fully embrace his second chance at life.
