1974年8月7日,法国杂技名人菲利普·珀蒂(保罗·麦克吉尔 Paul McGill饰)在纽约世贸大厦高达110层(412米)的两座大楼之间,完成了一次至今仍令人叹为观止的壮举——搭起了一条横跨天穹的钢索,完成了长达45分钟的大胆表演。谁也想不到,这个害羞的25岁男孩菲利普,在朋友们的帮助下,缜密调查筹划,突破层层关卡,终于神不知鬼不觉地完成了这次极其危险而疯狂的“艺术犯罪”。菲利普在钢索上或跪或躺,时而慢行时而舞动。影片镜头细腻地捕捉到了当年无比惊险的分秒,并生动地重演了现场,再加上人物访谈等多种手法,使得这部逐梦世贸大厦间的纪录片,在美国911事件后,弥足珍贵。 这部由BBC、Discovery和UK Film Council联合出品的传记类纪录片《走钢丝的人》,荣获2009年第81届奥斯卡金像奖-最佳纪录长片,2009年第62届英国电影和电视艺术学院奖-最佳英国影片,及2008年第21届欧洲电影奖-最佳纪录片奖提名。

An expert at sleight of hand and with a keen eye for identifying charlatans and tricksters, our story begins as Harry has fallen on hard times in recent years, professionally and ethically losing his way. He’s resorted to making his living as a fake medium and fraudulent ghost hunter, conducting séances for unsuspecting families who think their lives have been made a misery by ghostly mischief making. Harry’s duplicitous lifestyle has also had serious consequences when after leading a séance for a tragic soldier a young man commits suicide on the doorstep of Harry’s home. A couple of months later, Harry is offered the chance to investigate the haunting of a local MP’s home as the case threatens to ruin the politician’s reputation. With the prospects of leading his political party, Edward Curtis can ill-afford the scandal as his wife Grace begins to hallucinate and act bizarrely and very much out of character as she believes their family home to be haunted. There’s a possibility Grace may be committed to an asylum in scandalous circumstances if Harry doesn’t take on the investigation. Ghosts from Harry’s past influence his decision to take the case and he begins to think it might be time to take a new path. Together with the Curtis family maid, Sarah Grey, whose own mother has fallen prey to con artist mediums in the past, their detection and investigative skills complement one another and they make a formidable partnership. Smart, driven and open-minded, Sarah is a strong-minded woman who can handle herself when unravelling the mysteries behind the hauntings, which are seriously affecting Grace’s health and well-being. Harry also calls on the services of his old friend, Albert, during the investigation. An African pharmacist with a sideline in voodoo con-artistry, Albert has a keen interest in medical and scientific discoveries, which Harry exploits to the maximum. Journalist Vernon Wall also finds himself in Harry’s orbit. Cynical and hard-bitten, although clever at winning the trust of the people he’s interviewing, Vernon is keen to learn about Harry’s techniques and sensing a political scandal sets out to inveigle his way into his life by extracting information from Sarah.
