The film tells the story of a troupe of travelling performers in southern Europe who go by the playful name of ‘Circo Soluna’ (‘Sun-moon circus’). At the heart of the troupe are a German family who have lived on the road for more than 30 years, gathering around themselves a community of actors, nomads and others they have met while travelling. Their houses are brightly coloured horse-drawn wagons that have neither the usual household amenities of modern life, nor an internet connection. Even their ‘kitchen’ is a small pony-drawn wagon that holds their main unbreakable utensils and food, brought to them mostly by local townspeople. It would seem that a utopian freedom prevails here – but as each new day begins, obligations and responsibilities begin with it.
