“1974. 1350 feet up. The artistic crime of the century.”
On August 7th 1974 French tightrope walker Philippe Petit stepped out on a high wire illegally rigged between New York's World Trade Center twin towers then the world's tallest buildings. After nearly an hour of performing on the wire 1350 feet above the sidewalks of Manhattan he was arrested. This fun and spellbinding documentary chronicles Philippe Petit's "highest" achievement.
