This visually striking documentary takes you to a fascinating land perched high above the streets of Paris. Moving from one roof to another, you will meet the people who work on the roofs and those who design, paint and photograph them... And there are those who break the law to roam the city heights, and others who live contentedly on the top floors of their buildings enjoying magnificent views. The film takes you on a journey through the unique urban landscape of Paris to uncover hidden facets of its architecture, unravel the threads of its history, and meet those who have created their own little world between gleaming slate and deep blue sky. On the rooftops of Paris is a poetic hymn to the stunning beauty of the City of Lights.
