At the dawn of the 20th Century, the first city lit by electricity-Buffalo, New York-hosts a dazzling World’s Fair to showcase America’s march into the future. Unknown to organizers, the bold grandsons of a runaway slave plan to conquer the sky during a fateful presidential visit. They intend to show the world that nothing is more powerful than mankind’s oldest dreams-flight and freedom-meeting imagination in an age of possibility.
