Synopsis

This film explores the history of clowns, those artists of the absurd. Beginning with Charlie Chaplin in the early 1900s and continuing to contemporary performers like James Thierrée, his grandson, it charts the evolution of clowning worldwide, highlighting similarities and turning points. The film showcases the breadth of clown artistry, from Popov and Slava's pursuit of perfection to Fratellini and Semianyki’s embrace of clumsiness as performance. It's a poetic journey that reveals both the humor and the underlying tragedy of the clown persona. Featuring figures like Buster Keaton and Jacques Tati, who powerfully capture the human condition, and reminding us of Fellini, the film demonstrates how clowns embody the ridiculousness of humanity.
