Benjamin and his father are the marvelous clown duo of Pangaré
(Mongrel) and Puro Sangue (Thoroughbred). They own the small Circus
Esperança (Circus Esperanza) and lead a troupe of itinerant artists
through the roads of Brazil. Benjamin is sick of the life he leads and
keeps repeating in his head, like a motif, the following thought: "I
make everyone laugh, but who's going to make me laugh?" This recurrent
conflict is mixed with his desire to see the world, have a fixed
residence, buy a fan, and even get an ID card like any regular
citizen. Would leaving the circus be the best choice for Benjamin or
does he just not seem to realize he is the funniest clown the world
has ever seen?
