"Man On A Wire" to screen at Tribeca

The true story of Philippe Petit, the Frenchman who on August, 7, 1974, tightrope walked across the top of the world, on the 110th story of the Twin Towers. Philippe adored the challenge of plotting to do the impossible, like a bank robbery, "against the law without being wicked or mean".

He describes the challenge of creating I.D. badges, casing the top floors and stairwells, avoiding security guards, encouraging friends and "Inside Men" to help him carry out his plot, his dream and "tangible proof to do the impossible".

Film showing at "The Tribeca Film Festival" on Saturday April 26, at 5:30pm at TISH and Sunday April 27, at 3:15pm at VEC-01.

Light hearted documentary about one man's dream turned into reality.
Fun
