- Plot: Who ever said that the 'sad clown' figure was a stereotype ? Assuredly, those who say so have never met Filippi, a clown who gets millions of laughs under the big top but whose heart has been bleeding ever since.... But first listen to his story, ladies and gentlemen...: There was a time when Filippi was passionately in love with Arlette, the beautiful trapeze artist of the circus. Unfortunately for him, Arlette did not share his feelings. The one she was smitten with actually was Mario, her handsome partner on the trapeze. What to do if not to get rid of his rival ? After hesitating for a while, Filippi finally decided to make it happen: he sabotaged the trapeze. But, alas! it is Arlette who fell instead of Mario. Now, not only does Filippi mourn his love forever lost but remorse for what he did is killing him slowly. Well if the 'sad clown' stereotype does exist,, ladies and gentlemen, then Filippi is... a living stereotype.
