A small circus arrives in a coastal area of the North Sea: the place looks rather eerie and the audience is quite scarce. But despite all of this, the life of the performers is animated by feelings born under the circus tent, and which are often lived out in the secret of their trailers. The ballerina Angèle has an affair with Elliot, the company's clown who is tormented by his conscience; but she is also courted by Heroy, the circus director; he is a cruel and potentially dangerous man who is willing to win her over by resorting to the powers of the magician Zephyr.

Aldo, a young male nurse, is Lucie’s boyfriend, who is a student. When he loses his job, he desperately needs to find money so that he can keep paying for his fiancée’s studies. Persuaded by two blind friends of Lucie, he ends up becoming a sexbuddie for handicapped people, both men and women. Keeping this a secret from his fiancée, Aldo embarks on a new life that will totally transform him.
