A period drama set in the early 20th century follows Josef, a former construction worker who once delighted in dancing on city girders and now works sweeping at a circus. When the big‑top owner spots the young roustabout defying gravity on the trapeze, he pairs Josef with his aerialist daughter Alice for a perilous sky‑high pas de deux. The story offers a romantic view of circus life, featuring Josef in a moth‑eaten angel costume.
