Plot

A tragicomedy on displaced people in the post-Communist era. Its protagonist are mostly old-timers from the circus world and the variety stage. When the circus burns down and the "last performance" ends in tragedy, the fault for the loss is laid upon corrupt officials and smalltime gangsters.

Great film showing disfunctionality of the system in a very funny and unusual way, people being satisfied with nothing and working their whole life for fake respect. Collision of generations, ideologies (Stalinism and "democraric capitalism").
