Niagara Missions

Rising Descent, the legendary Toronto stunt team, packs their bags and embarks upon a journey to Niagara Falls to perform a cirque-style art installation about poker at the fallsview casino throughout the summer of 2006. I shot a feature-length documentary about this process which began at RAISE, a fund raiser for our dear friend Carolyn Pioro who suffered a severe spinal cord injury while training for a circus tour. The documentary reveals the rehearsal process, opening night, and our lives in Niagara Falls during the summer of 2006. If the Joker looks familiar to you, it is because he is NOT me. ;)Enjoy!!!
