Synopsis
The visually spectacular and utterly satisfying ‘Lily Topples the World’ follows 20-year-old Lily Hevesh—the world’s greatest domino “toppler” and the only woman in her field. A delicate balance of engineering and creativity, Lily’s unique brand of art is an absolute delight to watch with appearances by Jimmy Fallon, Katy Perry, Will Smith, YouTuber Casey Neistat, and a steady stream of Gen-Z creators. Filmed over three years, the documentary is a wholesome coming-of-age story cloaked within a unique portrait of an artist and a shining example of how passion and dedication can make dreams come true.
Touching on the topics of adoption and cultural integration, this inspirational documentary is a tale of perseverance and integrity. Lily embraces what makes her different and shows us how people can truly shine in environments where their talents are recognised and nurtured. For such a young woman, Lily certainly knows who she is and what she wants to achieve in life. It’s a joy to witness her succeed over and over again and share her infectious passion for art and creativity with others across the world through her YouTube videos that now have over 1 billion views.
