You hear that?
Listen.
Elevators are moving.
They're sending security.
We're definitely spotted.
Go. Go. Go.
I hear them coming.
In here.
Construction workers everywhere.
Fuck, didn't plan on this.
We'd need crazy luck to get out of this.
Careful, don't cough or sneeze.
Do you ever use safety harnesses?
No, never.
So you're called rooftoppers?
Actually, we're not just rooftoppers.
We're skywalkers.
Oh, Grandma, you're so young here.
Look,
your mom lived to perform with her snakes.
And her llama,
and her wolves,
and her monkeys.
She brought them all to live here.
That one wolf,
it lived in the bathroom.
I was afraid to go to the toilet.
But your mother can't be told "no."
She is defiant.
In our family, all the women are tough,
with strong personalities.
We rule ourselves.
And now here you are.
Everything was wild then
back in the circus days.
Is your knife sharp enough?
What?
Is your knife okay?
The knife is fine.
It's my ears that don't work.
The hearing aids from the public clinic are cheap and lousy.
I always say, you can only rely on yourself.
Son,
we saw you on the cover of the Moscow Times.
What you do is extremely dangerous
and we want you safe.
For the sake of your future, maybe you can find a less risky path.
You don't worry that untrained people might follow your example?
I'm a trained, competitive gymnast.
I have a fine-tuned sense of balance.
It might look quite easy, but it's not.
It's dangerous. Please don't try this.
Are you afraid to die?
Fuck, I can feel my heart racing.
This is scary.
This is insane.
Seriously, I'm shaking, panicking.
You get used to it.
Harsh wind.
It's whipping me around.
Damn, it's wobbling a lot.
It's fine, I won't think about it.
This isn't an adrenaline addiction.
It's a commitment to self growth.
I want to develop as an artist.
And what, he just invited you?
Yep.
What does he want?
So this is Vanya Beerkus,
thousands of Instagram followers.
His profile is better than yours.
Yeah, but his sponsors want him to bring a girl.
Wait. So you get paid?
Yeah, 500 Euro.
Don't they want a second girl as well?
That's insane.
On foot?
It's 150 stories.
I've never done more than 70.
Angela Nikolau!
Hey!
You made me start to panic.
Sorry, I'm late.
Okay, the Eiffel Tower.
There's security cameras everywhere,
no blind spots,
even night vision cameras.
I didn't have a chance.
And what happens if we're arrested on this climb?
Well, it's Asia,
so if we break anything,
we'd do a prison term for vandalism.
They have very strict laws.
I just get anxiety, what if this or that happens.
I'm not a seasoned rooftopper like you.
You're an expert in Moscow roofs.
I'm far from an expert.
You don't do solo climbs, right?
Of course I do.
On extreme roofs?
I did Mercury Tower.
Seriously?
For real, by yourself?
Very impressive, you're brave.
Say something.
I don't know what to say.
I freeze up when…
I'm asked to deliver something.
Yeah, me too.
Yeah, I'm the same way.
I hope it won't fall off.
It won't.
It's now or never.
Be careful.
You too.
My sneakers are slipping, are yours?
Yeah, they are.
Wow, this one's really swaying.
I'm going after you.
Damn, be careful here.
It's super wet up here.
It's easier for you. I'm not tall enough.
Right.
Take your time.
That's really tough.
My shoes are slipping.
You're insane.
You'll help me up?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Look how beautiful.
We're off to the next destination.
Vanya, the risk-taker!
You see security down there?
Fuck, I'm scared.
Use the shingles like steps.
So scary here.
Holy fuck.
You're crazy climbing roofs like this.
Just trust the rope.
Fuck, it's a siren.
The police are down there.
Let's cut across to the other tower.
Don't rush, stay safe.
You're detained.
You're arrested for trespassing.
Show us your ID cards.
Something incredible just happened.
That's the Paris police station behind us.
But by some miracle, we are walking free.
They locked us in separate cells
after strip searching us.
Butt naked.
We're not terrorists, not suicidal, not hurting anyone.
We're just artists filming the city from up high.
I don't see anything wrong with that.
Whoa.
It's tough.
I'm afraid I'll fall.
Then don't go.
No.
Let me find you a rope.
Whoa, careful.
Can you give me a hand?
That's a long climb.
Let's do it.
I'm really scared for you.
It's shaking a lot.
Then let's not do it.
We're doing it.
No, stop.
Let me give you a hand.
This is stupid scary.
Other hand.
Whew, we made it.
The outside is better.
Don't rush.
The priority is your life.
It's super scary.
For sure, let's go back.
We've gone so far already.
This girl is amazing.
Can I hold onto this?
It turns out, yes.
Listen, this is a crazy feat.
Few people can do all that shit we just did.
I worry about you so much.
It's overwhelming.
She's become a part of me.
My focus is shifting from my own safety to hers.
That's called "love."
Well, maybe.
"Maybe?"
Plot twist.
Can I be on the same level as you?
Let's do it.
Let me fix your hair.
Okay, let's go.
We'll take the boxes.
You bring the cat.
It's our new home, Amur.
Your cat is just like you.
How's that?
Always exploring for new things to climb,
ways to get higher.
Only he has nine lives, but you only have one.
Wow, it's beautiful.
And nobody's been on top.
It's a virgin.
Let's do something gymnastic on top.
Okay, I'm in.
We have a deal.
But they haven't even built the spire yet.
It's the truth.
I'm not patient enough to wait that long.
What's more dangerous, roofs or you?
You stand behind.
Let's stay here.
Here I stretch my hand to you.
And we circle the drone above.
Always have three points of contact.
You got me?
I got you, I got you.
I'm taking my hand off now.
Yes, you can.
We're Vanya Beerkus and Angela Nikolau, the top rooftoppers on the planet.
Please, let's just stick together.
Angela, I'm glad you're so nonchalant while I take care of our safety.
Good job running us into a guard.
I can't see with my back.
You used to be calmer.
Wow, it's shaky.
What is she doing?
Angela, relax.
Babe, towards me. Don't throw your head back so hard.
Your neck gets very tense.
Put your other arm up.
Sick.
Slow down, Angela, slow down.
I'm not rushing.
I just don't see a good shot yet.
Vanya, we don't have a perfect photo of the legs.
Look, scroll.
I'm not seeing anything good.
Like, what is this?
Done. There was a great shot, Angela.
Let's do another.
Angela, enough. I'm tired of hearing that.
You're barely self-aware anymore.
You'll get tired and just collapse.
Why do the fucking work if it's all shit in the end?
For what? What did we climb here for?
Excuse me, I think this photo is excellent.
With this thing in it? What's that?
Fine, you take the shot.
I can't let go with both hands. I'm in heels.
Please stop creating panic. You drive me insane.
We were really pushing our luck.
That's why I'm focused on you.
You're holding on with one hand. How can I be calm?
It was ten minutes of that.
I don't understand your urge
to risk your life on these heights.
Should I be proud or upset?
Right, Mom, but
don't worry.
Please know I can bear this responsibility
because I'm confident in my abilities.
Listen,
I talked to my friend. There's a good opportunity for you.
It's a trading company.
You'd be a sales rep.
They might even provide a car.
Being creative may just be a hobby.
The TVs go in a pyramid like this.
Shit, I need to call them.
You are my strength.
Everyone is partying and you're like,
"I'd rather be on a crane right now."
Stop the war! Stop the war!
ACCOUNT BLOCKED IN YOUR REGION
I don't want to push you,
but please think about my offer.
Personally, I miss our climbs together.
It was magical.
Sunsets, sunrises,
don't you want that?
What I want is to earn,
to be honest.
With NFTs,
we create a gallery and sell directly to our buyers.
It'd be starting from scratch.
It's too risky.
I don't have a safety net,
someone offering me a well-paid office job.
We can't break into NFTs overnight.
We'd need to do something grandiose. The old stuff wouldn't cut it.
Do you remember me showing you
this tower being built in Kuala Lumpur?
It's done?
Almost. They're finishing the spire.
We have only a few months before the security system is installed.
It'll be impossible to get in after the tech is all up and running.
I read it'll be the last megatall skyscraper built for decades.
We can be the first.
It feels like goodbye forever.
This is not forever, silly.
Enough already, you're upsetting the dog.
I love you.
I love you too, Mom.
Let's go already.
The airport is so empty.
Worried?
A little bit.
How long since we practiced?
A few months already.
We need to train more often.
It's called a swan lift.
A swan lift.
Incredible. I really like this pose.
Let's try it.
Time for the circus show.
Let me position my hands.
Yes.
That's much better.
We're practically gymnasts.
If we can stay balanced.
It's cool, I was already engaged in kindergarten anyway.
That engagement didn't work out.
This will be our commitment.
I'm rooting for Brazil.
Everyone's watching the World Cup, including the workers.
And on the 18th is the finals.
If we climb during the match, the guards will be distracted.
I love how you're all fired up.
I haven't seen you like this for a long time.
We need the width of the spire,
a local drone operator to get us an aerial shot
so we can see the dimensions on top.
Yes, Dad, any extra time is spent building the NFT collection.
Don't rush.
Vanya, I got this.
Relax your palm, like this.
How many have you sold so far?
Two artworks so far,
but decent money.
Things are tight right now.
but we chose our new goal, Merdeka,
in hopes it'll take us to the next level.
I talked to the drone operator.
Do you know this guy?
Not really.
But everyone else refused.
You wrote to a ton of people?
I only talked to those willing to do illegal stuff.
The fewer people who know, the better.
What did the drone guy say about dimensions?
He'll try to get us the shot.
My balance is off.
I almost dove forward.
Stop, stop, stop. That hurts.
Nineteen.
Twenty.
Our holds are too short.
And we're not even accounting for the wind.
The drone guy is texting.
In the last six months, they caught two people.
They caught two groups.
He's still typing.
They're spending months in prison.
That's why nobody has posted from there.
There are face scanners and security cams on every floor.
That's serious jail time.
Goddamn it.
There's facial recognition, fingerprint scanners.
How will we get into the building?
What if we're arrested?
They won't catch us.
But what if, Angela?
We always do it, like ninjas.
Consider the process, not just the result.
Okay, whatever.
Kitty, you asleep?
I figured it out.
I got us breakfast.
Is this a new video?
Yes.
Look at these downward slopes.
The ribs connect the stadium to the street.
We climb that, we're inside.
But they're like a story tall.
You can climb that.
Check out what the drone guy sent.
The hole in the middle is very deep, Vanya.
There's no way, unless we put a plank across the top.
We can only put it on this thing.
It's perfect, Vanya, a piece of scaffolding.
I saw scaffolding in that Merdeka video.
The same, made of iron.
One, two, three.
Oh, no, let me down.
I need to stay balanced
and hold my focus.
At the horizon?
I need to practice on a roof.
Now we're talking.
Merdeka will be this wide.
Our only pen from home.
That's it, a very scary square.
Nightmare.
Oh, Vanya, be very careful here.
I got you. I won't go backwards, only forward.
Why did you take this step just now?
I just had to adjust my balance.
I can't explain it.
You didn't lose balance, did you?
No, I'm balanced.
Okay, so frightening. Let's do it.
One, two, three.
Oh god, it's terrifying.
One, two, three.
My legs are dipping.
Fuck.
Don't worry.
When there's nothing below, I feel like I'm falling forward.
It's very scary.
It's not the same on the edge of a drop.
How's it going to be on Merdeka?
I'll have to calm you down a thousand times.
Honestly, I'm not sure about Merdeka anymore.
Yeah, it'll be way harder.
So far, this feels like total madness.
Whoa, whoa, Vanya.
Do you remember Pasha from my old crew?
Pasha fell?
Yeah.
Damn.
I saw your post that you had a fall?
You're wearing a compression brace now?
Yeah, I crashed through the roof of a hotel.
That's terrible.
From the old crew,
sadly, most are gone now.
What do you mean "gone"?
I mean they died off one by one.
They're all dead now?
Yes, all of them.
Pogrebov?
The bald one. Yes.
He's gone.
Looks real scary, Vanya.
I don't agree.
There'll be the shock from the height and you're holding me.
I have to trust you completely and let go of all self control,
give all control to you.
I've always stood on my own feet or my own hands.
This time, I can't depend on myself.
Have I dropped you yet? No, I haven't.
I feel very weak.
I have to splash some water on my face.
All right.
Hold my phone.
You aren't moving confidently, babe.
Don't distract me.
Vanya, I can't go any further.
Is everything okay?
That's it. My body's paralyzed. I'll sit here.
Okay, wait, let me go get that shot.
Vanya, be careful, please. I'm so scared.
I don't know how I'm going to get back.
Okay, I'm coming to you now. Stay calm.
I can't even move my legs.
I'm stuck.
Wait.
I'm trying to calm down.
It's okay. Take your time.
Don't look down. Look up.
Fuck.
Well done, well done.
I can't sit like this any longer.
Where should I go next?
This position is uncomfortable.
I can't take your hand, I can't do it.
Now it's even less comfortable.
What should I do?
It's okay.
Calm down.
Don't panic.
Wait, wait.
Can you pull that leg out carefully?
Done.
At least I'm sitting on my butt now.
Shit, my knees are shaking.
I'll slide on my butt, like at a playground.
Okay.
Don't film me in this pose.
I don't know what's going on with me.
How do you feel?
Fine. Maybe it was a caffeine overdose.
I had two coffees this morning.
Do you really think caffeine is the reason?
I don't know what it could be.
It became so narrow, I just couldn't go on.
Then let's not do climbs like this anymore.
Something serious could happen the next time.
It's just, I worry about you.
I worry because you disconnect from reality.
So what? I have it under control.
Let me protect you.
It's always the same.
You start stressing out
and it turns into a total circus.
We'll never resolve this part.
It won't stop until we stop rooftopping.
You are probably right.
It'll never change. It never has.
What do you need to stop rooftopping?
You want me to stop rooftopping?
That's what you really want, honestly?
The end is near, yeah.
I think it’s time to wrap it up soon.
So you honestly want me to stop climbing roofs?
Yes.
It's the first time I've heard that from you.
You're for real?
Of course. I'm super worried about you.
It's not funny.
Fine, I'll stop climbing tomorrow.
No, not tomorrow.
Let's do Merdeka.
Film the NFT and then, that's it.
Let's stop, we're talking complete bullshit now.
For the relationship, he's willing to sacrifice what he loves most.
But when he's overprotective,
he holds me back.
Say it again?
I'm just saying he is trying to limit me.
Oh, I see.
Well, I've always lived by what my own mind advised,
and I don't regret a thing.
Angela, nobody knows you better than yourself.
Careful, Angel. Go super slow.
Fuck, these rods are thin.
Why are you grabbing there?
Give me your hand, Angela.
I prefer doing it myself.
Don't you trust me?
Vanya, Vanya, please, for real.
You're getting on my nerves.
I told you not to constantly pester me on climbs.
I'm worried about you.
You shouldn't be, Vanya.
Don't panic.
I'm just looking for the angle.
Oh, that works.
So windy.
Stay there. That's it.
Stay, stay, stay.
Hey, stop! Security!
You're trespassing. Stop!
Go, go, go.
Myself, myself.
Yourself, huh?
So I had a small accident.
I hurt my hand after a fall. Doctor says three weeks to heal.
I hope it heals sooner.
I'm a little slow, still on painkillers.
They put metal rods in.
Definitely unpleasant.
Thank you.
Thanks.
I think we need to slow down
and postpone Merdeka for a beat.
You postpone whatever you want.
I don't need to postpone anything.
You have a serious injury there.
Doctor said it'll heal in three weeks.
I know what my body needs.
You're behaving like a little girl.
I won't let you go until you heal properly
and we train thoroughly.
It's dangerous, Angela.
You "won't let me"? Are you my parent?
What do you want, Angela? You don't let me care for you.
It's not "caring" for me. It's limiting me.
All I did was try to help.
Thanks for your help. That's why I fell.
Because of me?
"Let me help you, let me help you, let me help you."
That's why I fell.
You fell because you don't trust me.
Don't touch me.
Until you start trusting me, I won't do Merdeka with you.
It's me who won't do Merdeka with you.
Stop telling me what I can't do.
Enough with the filming, guys.
If you don't trust me,
feel free to go on your own.
Fine, I will then.
Feel free.
I will.
Hi, Vanya.
Hi, Dad.
Been a while. How are you?
It goes well.
It's more or less fine.
Fine.
You don't sound sure.
Where's Angela?
She rejected your help, your support.
This is her decision.
Without trust, any relationship is bound to fail.
Maybe you should pause your relationship.
And be done with this project.
Maybe you should come back?
Go back?
What do you think?
My focus has shifted from my safety to her safety.
I'm responsible for her.
She's a part of me.
He's smothering my fire.
He told me that I'm losing control,
that I'm getting carried away.
Angela, you posted a caption on your social media:
"No limit, no control."
Yes, so what?
Maybe he's right to hold you back,
pulling you back down to earth.
While you bring him to life.
Maybe you both need the other for balance?
We are from Ukraine.
First day of the war, we just…
Same here.
I'm also from a circus family.
Will your daughter also work in the circus?
Up to her. I just want her safe.
What happened to your arm?
Or is that just for style?
Yeah.
What's the scar from, circus?
A knitting accident.
But honestly?
You fell?
Let's go to the circus.
Vanya's here.
How's your hand?
It didn't fall off.
Did you come here to climb or to talk me out of it?
Before you, I thought rooftopping was for personal achievement.
And when I met you, I realized that it's an art form.
And I was inspired by you.
You and I have begun to create
very beautiful things.
And I'm very grateful.
So let's make a deal.
I don't like conditions.
I think you'll like my terms.
No matter what craziness we face,
we come together,
rather than turning away.
And I promise I'll always be right there with you.
And on Merdeka too?
Including Merdeka.
And then we're done, right?
Security cam. I see a camera.
There's security around the perimeter.
Angela, cover the camera.
Security has a weak spot here,
but they're smart, there's a camera.
We'll climb up this rib thingy.
Then we'll circle around on the terrace.
So we'll pass above security.
Keep it casual.
Let's go higher for a better view.
Then slip past workers to enter the mall site.
We'll go to the third floor.
Then we navigate across the mall…
to the bridge to Merdeka.
The bridge is the hardest part.
Hopefully, the guard will be busy watching the football match.
Whoa, a mighty storm's brewing.
The workers are on the mall roof, rain or shine.
Anything to hide our faces.
Someone's coming.
Stealth level: Supreme.
There are cameras in the elevators.
The elevator cannot be used at all.
The entire area with lights on
is active construction.
If we zigzag between the staircases,
the workers can't track us.
Then we enter the spire.
We saw some stairs here.
They should go all the way up.
Let's fly.
God the wind is so strong.
Here, a perfect platform.
This scaffolding is perfect.
And then the longest ladder ever.
Plus, there's the trapdoor to the roof.
We break open the trapdoor,
and Merdeka is ours.
Easy.
We have so much to pack.
All tools in the backpack, including lockpicks.
Right, got all the tools.
Countdown to the World Cup kickoff?
It's 10:30 p.m.
Match starts in 30 minutes.
You're not nervous, are you?
No, I'm fine.
Let's climb this one.
Come here.
Put your foot here.
One, two, three.
You're doing great.
Argentina, France. 0. 0.
You hear that?
Fans going crazy.
Oh, it was Leo Messi on a penalty kick.
The guard's booth is below us right now.
Let's not get caught here.
Yeah, I see workers in the mall.
You see any cameras?
Careful, there's a guard.
Watch out, a guard with a flashlight.
Let's speed through here.
Let's put on the hard hats.
It's time to change outfits.
Be super quiet.
This floor is perfect.
There won't be cameras here.
The workers aren't even looking at us.
That's the bridge there.
Maximum quietness here.
There she is.
Let's touch Merdeka.
There's the guard's desk.
He's not there.
Watching the match, you knew it.
Just be super quiet.
That was easy.
Quick and quiet.
The match only goes 30 more minutes.
Yeah, good disguise.
This is exhausting.
Let's rest here.
The match is still tied, going into extra time.
That's 15 more minutes.
Clear. No cameras.
You hear that?
Match is going into penalties.
Even more time.
Nice spot.
We need to save energy for the spire.
Hour and a half until sunrise.
No point going up sooner.
We'll need to find the scaffolding too.
We'll do it all at 5 a.m.
What's that?
I've never seen this thing before.
A motion detector?
Camera.
Fuck. A camera.
Shit.
Was it on?
I think so.
What now?
Fuck.
I should have had my mask on.
You hear that?
Listen.
Elevators are moving.
They're sending security.
We're definitely spotted.
You hear workers?
Sounds like it.
They're really close.
Go. Go. Go.
What's our plan here?
They're coming this way.
Great idea.
Then we'll push it back once we're inside.
Fuck.
I don't know how we get out of here.
Our chances are low.
With this heat
and zero water left.
It's so dusty.
Careful, don't cough or sneeze.
The dust?
I keep thinking of those prisons.
We just need to wait it out.
We need water or our fevers will keep rising.
It sounds like they left.
Let's go for it.
Is that the elevator?
Fuck, it's the night shift.
Vanya, the caveman, procured us water.
They're on the other side.
Listen, all the way over there.
We'll be quieter in just our socks.
It's open.
Oh, man. We're so lucky.
That's the top floor?
Yeah, 118.
These are the other rooftoppers.
Yeah, in handcuffs.
This is fucked up.
Let's try the other staircase.
Another locked gate.
And another camera.
Fuck this.
Goddamn it.
We're fucked.
That's it, we retreat altogether.
Wait, maybe it's just a chain.
You want me to break it on camera?
It's a fail, a complete fail.
This is a disaster.
Everything's locked.
Any other option?
I honestly have no idea.
Maybe we can find a door to break?
We need to call it quits, Angela.
We've never given up before. Let's not start now.
It's over. The climb is over.
There's always a way.
And you always find it, babe.
I remember something from the building plans.
The top floor has that room with an exit to a fire escape.
We can pick the lock.
You're like my second intuition.
It's the spire. The spire.
This is where we saw the platform.
I see scaffolding there.
I'll go get it.
I'll try to cut one loose.
Super.
Brilliant.
Vanya, we're kicking ass.
Still a long way to go.
This is the craziest shit we've ever done.
My headache is worse.
I'm so tired.
We've been on this ladder 16 minutes already.
I'm so hungry and tired.
My lungs are full of dust.
I can barely move, holy shit.
Not there yet, another hundred fifty feet.
Seriously?
Will this Merdeka ever end?
I almost just fell.
I can't climb anymore, Vanya.
Another hundred feet
and the spire will be ours.
My arms are killing me.
Babe.
It's open.
It's open?
It's open.
Holy shit, babe.
Fuck, it's so shaky and so small.
But it's sturdy.
I don't see how we'll do the lift now, Vanya.
Terrifying?
Not too bad.
Fuck, it drops all the way down.
Crazy scary.
Vanya, I'm too scared even to stand on this.
I'm terrified.
My knees are shaking.
Babe, it's six feet long.
It's like an endless tunnel down.
I see it and there's no way I'll drop you.
I won't do it. I'm out.
You don't even want to try?
No, because it'll be me hanging over the edge.
And it'll be me that's holding you.
I've never dropped you in practice, never.
We've never done a lift after such an exhausting climb,
with no sleep.
Why are you being so negative?
Because I'm tired and anxious,
can I release this emotion?
Of course.
Are you afraid?
Yes.
Kitty, you know I'd never drop you.
But why go through this hell?
I'm super scared.
You want to call it off?
I don't know.
Okay, come here.
Yes, we've been climbing for over thirty hours.
Yes, it's been extremely hard.
But look at this beauty around us.
No one else has seen this view.
The forecast was for rain and clouds today.
It's been storming the whole time we've been here.
They say there are no miracles,
but here's one.
Not a cloud, no wind at all.
That's true, very strange.
This isn't an accident.
Just rely on me now.
Okay.
Let's go.
Three, two…
Wait, I'm not ready, I'm not ready.
Remember this moment, remember this moment.
Ready.
Three,
two,
one.
Don't worry.
I got you.
Let's fly, kitty.
Hold, hold, hold, hold.
I'll never drop you for anything.
Not scared anymore?
Yes, I'm fine.
We did it.
We made it, babe.
I can't believe it.
Son, you chose a unique life path.
And you achieved what you set out to do.
Thank you.
We're very proud of you, son.
Though it's wrong for a mother to say,
I agree and I'm proud of you.
That's so important for me to hear, thank you.
I didn't know you were coming.
This is a gift for you, Grandma.
Hearing aids! Are they expensive?
Let's try them out.
Whisper something to me.
I want a sandwich.
I love you too.
Thank you, darling!
