ON THE WINGS OF DREAMS is an adventurous and romantic documentary film that celebrates friendship and flying around the world.

Featuring thrilling aerial photography and sweeping original score. Through the love story of two pilots and their passion for flying and adventure. This Film shares, what all of us dream.

Flying joined two strangers from two different countries: a man and a women.

A common dream was the spark of a challenge, a flight around the world, and love for each other made them husband and wife in the middle of their adventure.

How can such a dream come true, with a low budget?
What are the sacrifices that have to be done, to make this flight a reality?
What does this flight imply, other than being a pilot?
Which is the right airplane, for this purpose?
Where is that airplane that consumes the least gas?
So many questions, so many sleepless nights, so many defiances.
But one day this dream transformed into a reality. A plane was born from thousands of aluminium pieces, a journey was planned. A journey of 240.000 Km or 150,000 miles, six times around the world.
The first part is done: from the tip of Florida, USA, to the end of the world: Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. Then to the Andes of Peru, to the far away Galapagos Islands, 1.100 miles, a 6 hours flight over the vast Pacific Ocean with no landing possibilities. Returning back to the States, flying from West to East, and South to North.

The travel is a free spirit, and so is our flight. Improvisation and surprises were encountered, and the most important of all: many friends, many people that shared with us a part of their lifes, a part of their knowledge.

Come and join them in their adventure, learn how also your dream can come true.
It does not matter which dream you have, it does not matter if your ambition is to sail or to climb a mountain, for what really matters is to have a dream and to make them come true.
Maybe this film might change your point of view, maybe it ignites the long forgotten dream.
