It's New York August 1974 a man is walking in the sky Between the newly built Twin Towers the man twirls through the air Far below the lives of complete strangers spin towards each other Corrigan a radical Irish monk working in the Bronx; Claire a delicate Upper East Side housewife reeling from the death of her son; Lara a drug-addled young artist; Gloria solid & proud despite decades of hardship; Tillie a hooker who used to dream of a better life; & Jazzlyn her beautiful daughter raised on promises that reach beyond the skyline of New York In the shadow of one reckless & beautiful act these disparate lives will collide & be transformed for ever
