This is a gripping, almost surreal documentary that tells the story of French tightrope walker Philippe Petit and his daring (and very illegal) 1974 walk between the Twin Towers. Structured like a heist film, it follows Petit and his crew as they meticulously plan what ultimately feels less like a stunt and more like a poetic act of public rebellion. It’s a celebration of obsession, creativity, and the need to do something extraordinary for no reason other than the sheer joy of doing it. When asked why he did it, Petit simply answers, “There is no why.” And somehow, that says everything.
