What does it mean to own a penthouse apartment in poverty-plagued Brazil? Hypnotic and revealing, High-Rise examines the verticalization of the Brazilian cityscape blending interviews with nine penthouse residents, owners of enviable killer views of Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and Recife, and a look from below, from the overcrowded world that seems to be building on every square inch of land. This documentary explores the social and cultural mindset of the Brazilian elite through a poetic visual and sound narrative. High-Rise is a film about height, status and power.
