The impressive film, which depicts how people react in times of crisis and how they can show solidarity in the face of difficulties, takes place in a famous opera house in Vienna. In the middle of the night, the building is suddenly shaken by a fire outbreak, causing some people to panic and flee while others are trapped inside. A wealthy businessman, a young opera singer, a chef, and opera-goers are forced to fight together amidst the fire. However, this disaster becomes more than just a physical threat; it evolves into an adventure that reveals the characters' internal conflicts.
