In the 80s and 90s, Zoey Tur and Marika Gerrard revolutionized news media with their reporting from a helicopter above Los Angeles. They were the first chopper to capture some of the most epic breaking stories, including the O.J. Simpson white Bronco chase and the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Intricately weaving together stunning aerial footage and home videos, filmmaker Matt Yoka parallels a turbulent city with the adrenaline of news reporting, the strain on Zoey and Marika, and ultimately a major life transition for Zoey. It is an exhilarating and unflinching look at the agony and ecstasy of breaking news.

Includes an exclusive post-film Q&A with filmmaker Matt Yoka. 

The film will be available for 48 hours from when you start the stream. Please note streaming is only possible from inside Canada. Need assistance? Visit our FAQ page or email us at streamingsupport@hotdocs.ca.
