Overview

The protagonist of this documentary film is not a sleepwalker. He is not a reckless adventurer. Or a madman. Or a bird - a man with wings. There are things he may lose. He has a big family - sons, a wife, dogs, a house, a job. But Eriks Rugens, the protagonist of this documentary film, has a courageous dream that has become a reality - climbing roofs. He has managed to overcome the natural human fear of height. Climbing the roofs is his hobby and work to be closer to the sky, on the spires of churches, on top of the high-rises. From where he looks at the daily and street life with different eyes.
