Czech series about the life and work of acrobats, tamers, clowns and other employees of Circus Humberto, spanning the period from the first half of the 19th century till the time of the first independent Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1939), based on the famous novel by Eduard Bass. The novel played an immensely important role in anti-fascist resistance, as the writer saw beyond the horizon of the time of war and Nazi occupation, to the future without fascists, racial theories and one nation holding others in contempt. The series tells the life stories of six generations of the famous Humberto family - touching biographies of people for whom the circus ring became fateful.
