  "account": "Netflix is set to lose the intense survival thriller movie \"Fall,\" which is due to leave its library this month. \"Fall\" follows the story of Becky Connor, a skilled climber who is encouraged by her friend Hunter to take one final climb to the abandoned B-67 TV tower, a 2,000-foot structure in the middle of the desert. The film is set to leave Netflix on August 17, giving viewers less than a week to watch it before it disappears from the streaming platform. The movie was filmed using a real 60-foot tower section built on top of a 2,000-foot cliff in the Mojave Desert to accurately portray the terrifying heights and conditions the actors had to face. Despite its intense premise, \"Fall\" also explores the characters' psychological conflicts and suppressed trauma. With strong performances by Grace Caroline Currey and Virginia Gardner, the movie is an effective survival thriller that leaves viewers questioning their own limits. The trailer for the sequel, \"Fall 2: Deadpoint,\" has also generated interest, introducing new protagonists attempting a similar survival challenge in Thailand.",
  "summary": "Netflix is losing the movie “Fall,” a survival thriller that follows two best friends who become trapped 2,000 feet in the air after climbing an abandoned radio tower.",
