When Dreams Take Flight is not a documentary about flying or achieving flight. It is a film about dreams and dreamers, a film about people who are willing to risk life and limb to follow their hearts and chase a dream that has existed since the dawn of man.

Through a series of interesting, intelligent and obsessed characters, spanning six centuries and two continents, we will explore the genesis, myth and reality of why humans are compelled to fly like birds and what six hundred years of failed experiments have taught us.
