Plot
In the circus a clown named Tottons Togni (Totò), obliged not to make-up off never to not reveal his identity, is constantly haunted by jealousy of three women (a lion tamer, a fantasist, a trapeze artist) and also by the investigation of a police officer. The plot is a clear pretext for a series of numbers taken from magazines Toto (such as the gay hairdresser and masseuse).

“The plot was most interesting. It belonged to no particular age, people, or country, and was perhaps the more delightful on that account, as nobody’s previous information could afford the remotest glimmering of what would ever come of it.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“Trade and the streets ensnare us,
Our bodies are weak and worn;
We plot and corrupt each other,
And we despoil the unborn.”
