735 views· 41 likes· 3:36· May 3, 2023

Being alone on a rope, sometimes hundreds of meters above the ground, has a very unique feeling tied to it. Highline athletes describe something that feels like locking out of their conscious mind and riding their focus into the zone. Time flies. Self vanishes. The feeling of being alive is the only one left. We call those people SKYWALKERS. Joe Chandler is a multi-talented human who is an inspiring figure in the highlining sport. By giving him the role of the messenger we dive deeper into the reasonings behind what makes athletes obsessed with the sport. Director: Alexandra Karadzhova Writing consultant: Gregory Rosati Talent: Joe Chandler DP: Carles Mas 2nd unit: Enrique Tarazona Sound on set: Paul Museck Editor: Yoana Bakarjieva, Alexandra Karadzhova Colorist: Vanya Tomova Sound Design and Mix: Hristo Dobrev

About This Video

In this passion film, I follow the feeling highline athletes describe as “movement meditation”—that moment where you lock out the conscious mind and ride pure focus into the zone. We’re hundreds of meters above the ground, but the real story isn’t just the height. It’s the way the line pulls you into the present: the nature around you, the people beside you, and the quiet shift from overwhelming emotion to a grounded appreciation for the moment. What I love here is how clearly the process mirrors any creative career: the prep, the momentum, and the commitment to a vision. From packing gear to hiking to the rigging spot, you can feel how forward motion carries you through resistance. And once you’re on the line, you realize the “doing” is only a small part of the experience—community is the bigger piece. Seeing others go through what you’ve been through creates a bond, and that shared goal—getting to that line at the top of the peak—becomes the engine. The takeaway I want you to sit with: performance grows when you repeat the cycle—set goals, show up with your people, achieve, and do it again. That’s as true for highlining as it is for building a filmmaking business.
