What a circus!

Sarah Schwartz has been traveling for more than twenty years, following the big tops that pop up all over the world. She has made the circus her world, a tightrope beneath her feet that constantly takes her from one country to another. She invites us to follow her.

These are the questions that form the basis of the documentary collection in which Sarah Schwartz invites us to step behind the red curtain into the wings of dreams and imagination to share a very unique world with us...
