Paris, 1970s. Philippe Petit is a high-wire artist who specializes in death-defying heights. He finds out that the World Trade Center is being built in New York, with two towers at a height of 415 m above sea level, twice as high as the Eiffel Tower. Pushed by his desire to go to the extreme for his art, he flies to the States and puts together a team to start planning his walk between the Two Towers.
