Though many documentaries have focused on the World Trade Center buildings after 9/11, this film centers on the Twin Towers in the 1970s. MAN ON WIRE follows the exploits of Philippe Petit in 1974 as he plans to walk a wire between what were then the world’s tallest buildings. When this film played at Sundance in 2008, it won the World Cinema Jury Prize: Documentary and World Cinema Audience Award: Documentary.
