[1] It is based on the 2009 rescue attempt of John Edward Jones in Nutty Putty Cave, west of Utah Lake.

It stars Chadwick Hopson, Alexis Johnson, Landon Henneman, Jyllian Petrie, and Jacob Omer.

In 2009, John Jones, a 26-year-old medical student and experienced caver, arrives in Utah for the Thanksgiving weekend with his wife Emily and young daughter Lizzie.

Susie then climbs back up to the entrance where she meets with an expert who states that if John is in the tunnel for extended periods of time, his body will begin to shut down.

John falls asleep and has a vision of his daughter in a field, but with an older man wearing grey clothing, whom he has seen before in hallucinations, after which he wakes up and suffers a panic attack.

Aaron, Susie and other workers plan to pull John out of the hole by drilling pulleys into the walls and hooking the ropes to his feet.

The workers rescue an injured Aaron, who struggles to get back to the cave, distraught over another failure and the loss of his new friend.

As he takes the baby from his cradle and exits the cave, the boy is born at a hospital and is placed in Emily's arms, who happily announces that she has named him after John.

Epilogue captions state that the cave's entrance has since been sealed, with John's body still inside, and provides a thank-you to the rescuers from the family.

Filming took place entirely in Utah, with exterior shots of the cave at the actual entrance, and the interior holes and twists recreated in a warehouse in West Valley.
