Without A Net is a 2012 documentary film directed by Kelly J Richardson of Live Wired Productions.

Plot

In an abandoned parking lot in a Rio de Janeiro ghetto sits a circus tent—an incongruous sight, but no more unusual than its motley crew of young performers, searching for a life apart from the drug-related violence around them. As chronicled by first-time feature filmmaker Kelly J Richardson, putting on a show takes rigor and resourcefulness in their impoverished community, and even this modest production of acrobats and contortionists isn’t free of injuries and ego clashes. But the big top is their oasis, and the human drama of hope and ambition the greatest show on earth.

Reception

The film premiered in March 2012 at the Atlanta Film Festival, where it was voted a "Festival Favorite". It had a theatrical release and Academy Qualifying run in Los Angeles and New York City through IDA's DocuWeeks and an International Premiere at Raindance Film Festival in London. It is set to screen in the Mill Valley Film Festival this October and several more festivals following that.
