No brakes tells the story of stunt women and stuntmen. Why they risk limbs and life for their job and why their happy spot is in the shade of an industry obsessed with the limelight. Newcomers, third generation and legends of the industry: they all express their passion for an occupation that takes a certain mindset. The story takes place in Los Angeles area and takes the viewers on a very special stunt driving lesson with Jim Wilkey, a legend in the industry. Amongst many other tricks, he was the man who flipped the semi truck in the Dark Knight Rises. We drive with Jim, meet newcomers like Alex Kingi (son of Henry Kingi) or Georgina Rawlings (daughter of Vic Armstrong, British stunt double of Indiana Jones and James Bond) and drive again with other accomplished stuntmen like Harry Wowchuk or Rick Seaman. Later on, we meet with Heidi Moneymaker, Scarlet Johansson stunt double. Other stuntmen brings their passion to the documentary and tell their stories and memories of movie sets. As the story evolves, stunt people talk about the legendary Bob Yerkes who keeps airstream trailers in his backyard to accommodate newcomers starting a career in the movie industry. The documentary ends with Bob Yerkes’ encounter in his house on Roscoe Boulevard, Los Angeles.
