Synopsis

Rosie is a quiet but precocious young girl whose desires to watch the 4th of July fireworks starts out with the best of intentions. She remembers the top of the World fondly—a place where her father would take her and Miles as kids to watch the fireworks, and she is determined to capture that sense of innocence and freedom she once cherished. However, this year, they're on their own. Miles and Rosie have been best friends since thye were in diapers. Miles is, however, not as committed to the trek to the Top of the World, and sees little reason why they need to journey so far when the fireworks can be seen from all over the valley. He appeases Rosie's unwavering resolution to the plan, but increasingly grows impatient and resistant when the journey grows exhausting. While trekking across the countryside, a strange but familiar face offers the kids a ride. At first, what seemed like a quicker way to reach the Top of the World, quickly devolves into a terrifying fight for survival. Rosie is forced to reconcile her decisions when the adventure spirals out of control and their lives are changed forever.
