Hilarity, romance, and festive spirit prevail after a citywide power cut traps six different groups of New Yorkers inside elevators on Christmas Eve. A heartless real estate tycoon (Patrick Stewart - X-Men, Star Trek: The Next Generation) clings to life in a precarious construction elevator hundreds of feet off the ground. Unexpected relationships bloom for a musician (Cheryl Hines), a crass HR manager (Max Casella - The Sopranos), his employee he just fired (Jon Heder - Napoleon Dynamite) and a cynical doctor (Gary Cole - Pineapple Express) transporting his terminal patient, are all forced to reconsider the way they think about others in this all-star ensemble comedy that proves that in a city of eight million, you never know who you might get stuck with.
