| Description: | Footage of a clown amusing the audience by squeezing his body through a small hoop is interspersed with back stage footage of a woman circus performer getting into costume and stretching out. Same woman perfomer emerges in the dark circus arena with a fellow male performer who under spot light lifts her to a metal hoop lowered from the ceiling, she ascends within the hoop high above the audience and there performs a spectacular routine showcasing her amazing strength, coordination and grace - in the hoop she spins and strikes all sorts of different positions including hanging up side down by her feet and hanging by the back of her head, for this routine the audience gives a strong applause and a man gives the peformer a bouqet of flowers. Same woman peformer emerges back stage, puts her flowers in a vase and is shown at some other time walking the streets with her man. | |
