Katherine S. Interviews cast/crew from Skywalkers: A Love Story at Sundance 2024
40Katherine S. scales to new heights during her Sundance Film Festival interview with Director Jeff Zimbalist, as he discusses his newest film, Skywalkers: A Love Story. The film chronicles a daring couple that travels worldwide to climb the last super skyscraper, attempting a bold acrobatic stunt on the spire to salvage both their career and relationship.
Jeffrey Leib Nettler Zimbalist is an American filmmaker. He has been Academy Award shortlisted, has won a Peabody, a DuPont, and three Emmy Awards, with 14 Emmy nominations. He is the owner of film and television production company All Rise Films.
Zimbalist's films have been shown on Netflix, HBO, Apple, ESPN, Fox, Showtime, CBS, Paramount+ and theatrically exhibited. Zimbalist's work has also been featured in a retrospective at the Big Sky Film Festival, at the Museum of the Moving Image in New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London.
Zimbalist premiered Skywalkers: A Love Story in the U.S. Documentary Competition at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival, to positive reviews. The Daily Beast wrote, "It's a thriller, a heist caper, and a surprisingly moving romance all in one, and it seems destined to be one of the breakout hits of this year’s Sundance Film Festival." Indiewire called it "Man on Wire" for the Instagram age." The Toronto Star called it a "real-life “Mission: Impossible”... so engrossing, it makes “edge of your seat” seem like an understatement," and Variety wrote, "The film’s exhilaration is that it shows you, through its dangling-from-a-steel-beam footage, what love really is: scaling the heights of devotion, no matter how perilous, without a net," with many reviews comparing it to Free Solo and Man on Wire. In a competitive bidding situation, Skywalkers landed at Netflix with a theatrical release planned.
