Umbrellas is a documentary film that tells the story of the iconic art installation created by artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, known as The Umbrellas. The film explores the artists' vision and the impact of the installation on the local community in Ibaraki, Japan. It also delves into the challenges they faced during the project, including the accidental death of an electrician. Through interviews and archival footage, the film provides a glimpse into the world of land-art and the power of art to transform landscapes and create unique experiences.

The Maysles' third film about the artists sees them trying to get three projects off the ground: wrapping the Pont Neuf, the oldest bridge in Paris; wrapping the Reichstag; and surrounding eleven man-made islands in Florida with pink plastic sheets. As the latter is the only one that gets approval, it gets the bulk of this film.
