In director George Nolfi’s Elevation, the only people left on Earth have to live above 8,000 feet to avoid the deadly monsters that live below them. Will (Anthony Mackie), Nina (Morena Baccarin), and Katie (Maddie Hasson) must risk going below The Line to save Will’s son, aware that they may not make it back alive.
