Synopsis
What do circus animals do in winter, during the off season? They work, of course, and repeat the numbers that will be the joy of the public under the tent in September.
This film opens the backstage of a very rare place in Ile-de-France, in which we learn new animal tours before they resume their activity from the first beautiful days arrived.
