Sypnosis

A 1920s millionaire lives in a huge old palace and has everything he fancies, yet he is not happy. One day a circus comes by, and there she is, the horserider he secretly loved before she disappeared, years ago! She tells him that the little boy who is already playing as a clown is his son. When the Great Depression occurs, rendering him both poor and free, he joins the traveling circus and hits the road with his little family. The little boy becomes clown Yo-yo. Time goes, WWII breaks out and Yo-yo now a successful producer can buy back his father's palace in decay. Starting from scratch, he will
rebuild it, and be praised as a great clown, an artist, a film-maker, a millionaire. Yet something is
amiss…
