GRAZING THE SKY

Grazing the Sky is an exciting perspective for trapeze and circus lovers. The evolution of this art form is presented with admiration and appreciation for all its expressions. It also offers a more personal look at the challenge of defying gravity; a closer view which takes in every detail of a show, its achievements and its obstacles.

“Our documentary is built from the muscles and skin of the artists and the skeleton of the public and private institutions: they are complementary and cannot exist separately in the universe called circus. Using the trapeze as a metaphor, this movie explores the reality of circus today and, as a result of this research, we come to realize that whether dressed in silk or casual clothes, somersaulting trapeze artists will astonish us equally and when they work as a duo, each leap will depend on a partner’s help.”
