Premise


To stand on the edge of a cliff and throw your body into the wind, one has to be willing to lose everything. That could mean the love of your life, or it could be the life you love. FLY is an intimate portrait of three romantic couples entwined in the world's most dangerous sport. Can they protect their partners while also setting them free?




Reception


On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 92% of 13 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 7.1/10. Carla Hay of Culture Mix reviewed the film, stating "With breathtaking cinematography and even more poignant human stories, Fly is an unforgettable documentary about the dangerous sport of BASE jumping. The documentary shows in unflinching ways how the sport can be as fulfilling as it is addicting". Pat Mullen of POV Magazine wrote: "Fly takes audiences to great heights". Writing for Common Sense Media, Jennifer Green stated "With impressive access to its handful of extreme-sport enthusiasts, Fly offers an insider's view of a small community of high-risk base and wingsuit jumpers from around the world". Nell Minow of RogerEbert.com wrote: "Fly goes a little further in acknowledging the risks and responsibility or lack thereof involved than the recent “Skywalkers: A Love Story,” but perhaps not far enough."




Release


The film first premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival on March 10, 2024, and later at the Hot Docs International Film Festival on April 28, 2024, and the Telluride Film Festival on August 30, 2024.
