The Last Circus

In the tumultuous year of 1937, a troupe of performers face the devastating grip of war. Their lives are shattered as they navigate the horrors unfolding around them, setting the stage for tragedy.

The enigmatic Funny Clown begins his rampage against the Nationalist forces. Armed with a machete, he unleashes a ferocious frenzy, taking down enemy troops with skill and determination.

Despite being wounded and disarmed, the Funny Clown continues his fight until he meets a grim end at the hands of Colonel Salcedo's merciless horse. This marks a tragic loss for his fellow performers and sets a dark tone for the events to come.

After the chaos, the Funny Clown is condemned to a life of forced labor at the Valle de los Caídos monument. This punishment encapsulates the tragedy that befalls both him and his troupe.

Fast forward to 1973, Javier, a melancholic sad clown, seeks to honor his father's legacy by joining the same circus. His journey back to this world is laced with nostalgia and burgeoning hopes.

Javier becomes involved with Sergio, the provocative Funny Clown, who struggles with his violent tendencies. Their relationship is marked by tension and emotional depth as they both navigate the complexities of clowning and their own personas.

In a shocking act fueled by rage, Sergio savagely beats Natalia unconscious after a night of heavy drinking. This incident sets off a chain reaction that deeply impacts Javier's and Natalia's budding romance.

Despite the chaos, Javier and Natalia cultivate a forbidden romance filled with tender moments and stolen glances. Their connection deepens when Natalia confesses her love for Javier under the enchanting lights of an amusement park.

Sergio's sense of jealousy and danger culminates in a sudden, violent encounter that leaves both Natalia and Javier severely injured. This pivotal moment reshapes their fates as Javier is confined to a hospital bed.

While recovering, Javier experiences nightmares where he is powerless to save Natalia from Sergio's threats. Driven nearly to madness, he ultimately escapes the hospital, fueled by a fiery quest for revenge.

Returning to the circus, Javier confronts former troupe members and is devastated to find Natalia and Sergio entangled in a passionate affair. His rage boils over, leading to a brutal beating of Sergio.

In the aftermath of the confrontation, the circus starts to collapse, its members scattering away. Natalia and others seek refuge in a nightclub, attempting to navigate the fallout of the violence.

In a dark turn, Javier becomes a feral creature in the wilderness after being captured by hunters. His transformation accelerates as he bites a hand of Generalísimo Francisco Franco, landing him in prison.

In prison, Javier has a haunting vision of Natalia appearing like the Virgin Mary. This vision urges him to take on the role of her Angel of Death, driving him to disfigure his face and plot revenge.

The pursuit escalates to the Monumental Cross where Natalia sacrifices herself in a struggle between Javier and Sergio. Her tragic fall marks the ultimate sorrow in their love triangle, leading to their impending doom.
