action

Exactly one day before the summer tour starts, the owner of a small country circus tragically dies. To somehow save the season, the circus troupe turns to his eldest daughter, Kate. She turned her back on the circus 15 years ago, so the artists are all the more surprised that she lets herself be persuaded. On the way to her unloved circus, she meets Vittorio, who helps her with a car breakdown. Fascinated by Kate, he follows the circus and begins to settle into the daily routine of the artists. He even does a circus act. But what really draws him to the circus is to learn Kate's secret: Why did she leave the circus years ago to return after her father's death?
