On a Tightrope plot

Director Petr Lom followed four orphans in Xinjiang, China, for over a year. The children dream of a glorious future by continuing the age-old tradition of tightrope walking. We see their courage, not only to balance on the high rope but also to stand their ground in the bitter reality of repression and censorship. They don't have a safety net.
