Plot Summary
Mia (Erica Kathleen Linz) is a young woman seeking escape. She enters a circus tent and falls instantly in love with an aerialist (Igor Zaripov) that she sees performing.

Mia and the aerialist become separated and travel in a place that exists between life and death to find each other again. Acts from Cirque du Soleil shows "O," "Mystère" and others illustrate their journey.

    At its best, Worlds Away is a parade of mostly attractive acrobats performing physically improbable feats. At its worst, it has the humorlessness of Ridley Scott plumbing the deeper meanings of an Esther Williams water ballet. show more
