Carl Fredricksen, a retired balloon salesman, is part rascal, part dreamer and ready for his last chance at high-flying excitement.

Tying thousands of balloons to his house, Carl sets off to the lost world of his childhood dreams. But unbeknownst to Carl, 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer Russel has ended up coming along for the ride with him.

Together the world's most unlikely duo reach new heights, meeting a speaking dog and a rare 13-foot tall flightless bird along the way.
