The parallel lives of writer Truman Capote (1924-84) and playwright Tennessee Williams (1911-83): two friends, two geniuses who, while creating sublime works, were haunted by the ghosts of the past, the shadow of constant doubt, the demon of addictions and the blinding, deceptive glare of success.

Este documentário sobre o pioneiro de BASE jumping dos anos 70, Carl Boenish, sem dúvida nos proporciona a maior descarga de adrenalina do ano. Além de um temerário, Boenish também é um cineasta, filmando seus saltos de quilômetros de altura a partir de marcos imponentes, como a montanha El Capitan, de Yosemite, um arranha-céus de Houston, e Troll Wall, na Noruega. A diretora de Sunshine Superman, Marah Strauch, usa as filmagens de Carl de maneira excelente, nas quais Boenish e seu esquadrão BASE-jumping espiam a beira de alturas vertiginosas para, em seguida, mergulhar em direção ao solo, abrindo seus paraquedas no último momento possível. Este filme é um salto em queda livre, emocionante, percorrendo a vida e a carreira de um iconoclasta, com imagens de tirar o fôlego, literalmente.
