"People search their whole lives to find one thing they're good at...to find the one thing that makes them special."  Meet Walter Griffin, who, on the best day of his life, built a flying lawn chair that managed to carry him 16,000 feet in the air.  He's never quite come down from his 15 minutes of fame, and he's spent the last 16 years trying to invent new ways to fly while his wife keeps the family afloat.  UP is a quirky, bittersweet tale about escaping the boundaries of the everyday and how easy it is to dream ourselves into the future...
