One of the tools of the trade that 22-year-old domino artist Lily Hevesh shares with a group of families at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is the importance of a safety gap so that a spectacular domino creation doesn’t topple on itself before the cameras are rolling. It’s advice that, at a certain point of no return, becomes impossible to heed in one of the most crushing (pun intended) scenes taking place in Paris, one stop along Hevesh’s multi-continent journey.
Directed by Jeremy Workman––whose previous documentary The World Before Your Feet followed Matt Green’s quest to discover every street of New York from Manhattan to the deserted patches of Queens and Staten Island–– Lily Topples the World is an insightful crowd-pleaser sure to inspire a new generation of domino topplers.

Who is Lily Hevesh? For the world’s most famous domino artist with 3 million Youtube subscribers (@Hevesh5), this is a huge question — and one that simply goes unanswered in “Lily Topples The World.” Though Jeremy Workman’s latest entry in the SXSW Documentary Competition showcases Lily Hevesh’s domino sets behind the scenes, he fails to explore the mastermind herself beyond surface-level analysis. This ends up with a largely disappointing watch. The documentary ends up more attractive for its simple domino footage (of course set to classical music) than it does as an exploration of who Lily Hevesh is beyond the titles: the person, the artist-engineer, the girl.
“Lily Topples the World” opens with promise. The film begins at Lily Hevesh’s current position at Rensselaer Technological Institute in New York. After that though, it only goes downhill. Though the documentary promises excitement — sprinkled with star presence and scenes shot...

Midway through Jeremy Workman’s SXSW-premiering documentary Lily Topples the World, there’s a scene of premature topplation unlikely to be supplanted among the year’s most tragic cinematic moments.
It doesn’t matter that I’ve warned you to expect it, because in the world of professional domino toppling, the line between a meticulously constructed piece of art waiting for a perfectly timed nudge and that same piece of art rushing toward its inevitable doom ahead of schedule can be razor-thin.
