Life on the Brink

From the sun-soaked pools of Cali to the world’s wildest cliffs, Orlando Duque has spent his life defying gravity. The 13-time world champion has leapt from icebergs, in jungles and from forgotten corners of the planet, chasing beauty, risk and the perfect dive. Today he is Sports Director of the Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series and looks back on a life lived beyond the edge. For many years we tried to finance this portrait, then we made it ourselves. A long companionship became a personal journey through his life, inspired by our expeditions to Antarctica and the Amazon. The film is in its final stages; the trailer offers a first glimpse.
