On September 11, 2001, members of the Port Authority Police are dispatched to Midtown Manhattan in response to the North Tower of the World Trade Center having been hit by a plane. The officers learn en route that the South Tower also was hit by another plane. Sergeant John McLoughlin, veteran of the 1993 bombing, assembles a group of volunteers including officers Will Jimeno and Dominick Pezzulo, to retrieve rescue equipment from Building 5. As they begin to climb the stairs of the North Tower, the South Tower collapses onto them and traps them under the rubble. McLoughlin, Jimeno, and Pezzulo are the only survivors, but they are trapped beneath the rubble. Pezzulo is killed by a piece of rubble but not before giving a signal as to their whereabouts. Now Jimeno and McLoughlin spend painful, terrifying hours under the rubble telling each other about their lives. Meanwhile, their families try to learn if they are still alive.
