The vision of environmental/conceptual artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude creates a whirlwind of controversy in many of the communities where they install their work. Known for projects as seemingly incomprehensible as surrounding islands around Miami in flamboyantly pink fabric and using fabric to disguise the Pont-Neuf in Paris, the pair aim to change the way people view their surroundings -- both natural and manmade. In a series of films spanning their creations from 1974 to 1995, legendary filmmakers Albert and David Maysles, along with collaborating directors, capture the awe-inspiring beauty, drama, and sheer determination involved in bringing to bear these inspiring projects.
