From The Sky Down: A Documentary Film About The Making Of U2’s Achtung Baby

Twenty years after the release of U2’s ACHTUNG BABY (1991), Academy Award-winning director Davis Guggenheim (IT MIGHT GET LOUD, WAITING FOR SUPERMAN, AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH) charts the path toward this groundbreaking album. Guggenheim uses animation and unseen footage from Berlin and Dublin alongside conversation to reveal what is now a key chapter in U2’s career. FROM THE SKY DOWN includes bonus footage of “So Cruel,” “Love Is Blindness” and “The Fly,” shot in May 2011 during the band’s visit to Hansa Studios to mark the 20th anniversary of ACHTUNG BABY; as well as a Q&A with Bono, the Edge and Davis Guggenheim filmed at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2011.
