The film"s page
Brad Braden, le manager d’un cirque prestigieux, doit faire face à des difficultés financières. Pour rassurer les investisseurs, Braden engage le «grand Sébastian», un trapéziste renommé. Mais cette nouvelle n’a pas de quoi réjouir Dolly, la chère et tendre de Braden, désappointée de devoir céder la tête d’affiche à un nouveau venu. Ainsi, dès la première représentation, Sébastian et Dolly réunis dans un même numéro s'engagent dans un duel de trapézistes aussi dangereux que spectaculaire.
