i believe i can fly (flight of the frenchies)




It’s not very often that watching a 4 minute video can leave you out of breath and sore from hanging on to the edge of your seat, but in this trailer for the documentary “I Believe I Can Fly” by Frenchman Sebastian Montez-Rosset, it’s entirely possible. Chronicling a group of “skyliners” (which seems like a combination of slack lining, base jumping, and a general death wish), the excerpt is absolutely beautiful, featuring vistas of the group over the gorges of Noway and in between two skyscrapers in Paris, among other death-defying locations. Along with the striking imagery, the sound design also aims to literally blow you away, as the howling winds that are out to ruin the group’s goals (and possibly their lives) can be heard in full force.
