    Brief synopsis

    I should have held on to the chandelier Ulrike and Olli met while touring with Circus Roncalli in 1985. As part of the successful clown duo ‚Illi and Olli’ he was living his childhood dream. She had left her life as a nurse in Berlin behind to become a part of the circus family. Once the season was over, she followed him to Switzerland. What sounds like the beginning of a fairytale, soon arrives in the reality of creative crises, parenting and aging. A story about my parents’ relationship.
