Soaring above the chaotic spectacle of ‘80s and ‘90s Los Angeles, a young couple revolutionized breaking news with their brazen helicopter reporting. Culled from this news duo’s sprawling video archive is a poignant L.A. story of a family in turbulence hovering over a city unhinged.
Zoey Tur and Marika Gerrard revolutionized news media with their aerial reporting of Los Angeles – and in doing so, defined our recorded memory of the city. Their unmatched eye-in-the-sky video archive captures the spectacle of 1990s L.A. while revealing their own personal complexities. This documentary film weaves intimate interviews with a stunning archive, illustrating a family as fascinating as the city they flew above.
