This Oscar-winning documentary depicts the “artistic crime of the century” in which French tightrope walker Philippe Petit performed a brave, illegal high-wire walk between the World Trade Center’s twin towers in New York City in 1974.
Recently adapted into a Hollywood movie starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, this thorough documentary portrait of Philippe Petit and his collaborators remains as the definitive take on one of the greatest stunts ever pulled. A unique post 9/11 cinematic object and Marsh’s gift to the city of New York.
