In this offbeat melodrama from accomplished Danish director Anders Refn, a family of aerialists decides to go after the $250,000 prize being offered to any group that can execute a next-to-impossible trapeze maneuver. However, personal dramas and financial difficulties soon threaten to overtake the flyers’ pursuit of the elusive quadruple somersault. The film received a Robert Award as the best Danish film of 1985.
