Lily Topples the World Appalachian Theatre of the High Country Boone NC part of the Boone DOCS film series “Lily Topples the World” is also free, in-person screening on the BOONE DOCS Series at 4 p.m. on Sunday, April 3 and is followed by a post-show Q&A with the filmmakers. It follows 20-year-old sensation Lily Hevesh, the world’s most acclaimed domino toppler and the only girl in her field, as she rises as an artist, role model, and young woman. Filmed for over three years across countless cities and featuring appearances by Jimmy Fallon, Katy Perry, Will Smith, YouTuber Casey Neistat, and a steady stream of Gen-Z creators, “Lily Topples the World” is a coming-of-age story cloaked within a unique portrait of an artist, a story of how passion and artistry can make dreams come true, and an unlikely American tale of a quiet Chinese adoptee who transforms into a global artistic force with over one billion YouTube views. According to Slash/Film, a critical review compendium, “Lily Topples the World” is "An undeniable crowd pleaser! It’s just the kind of unbridled optimism one might seek out after a year marred by despair, delivered by a startling bright ball of sunshine."
