Son of a clown imprisoned by Franco's minions during the Spanish Civil War, Javier is shy and self-effacing, as he begins his job as a circus clown in 1973 in Madrid. He soon falls for Natalia, who is regularly mistreated by Sergio, a psychopath who tyrannizes the whole circus troupe. After standing up to Sergio and disfiguring him, Javier escapes into the countryside, where he lives like an animal, until the day he comes face-to-face with none other than Franco and the general who jailed his father...
