In a future where the wealthy live above the smog in floating cities, a group of scavengers — led by a buoyant teen — make the seemingly impossible ascent from the barren earth below in search of essential supplies for their people.

Wasn't expecting this level of feedback - thank you!

All of your comments are of use and give me a good insight into what I'm not communicating about my story within the logline.

Sounds similar to Elysium (2013), where the elite live in a luxurious satellite colony in space.?? Also the protagonist in that film had personal stakes -- it's a matter of life and death-- with a ticking clock.

What are the life-or-death stakes for the protagonist and his motley crew ? ? What do they stand to lose if they don't try to invade "heaven", just accept their lot in "hell"?? IOW:? Why MUST they invade "heaven NOW"?? What's the urgent need?
