Summary
At the gala opening of the world's tallest skyscraper in San Francisco, an electrical fire ignites on a high floor due to substandard wiring and rapidly spreads through the building, trapping hundreds of VIPs at a penthouse party. The architect and the fire chief must work together to rescue the guests as the inferno climbs upward and conventional firefighting tactics fail.
