Jacob is situate in a nursing home, 90 years of age. A local circus visits close by, and Jacob's memories come flooding back...
A young man, Jacob Jankowski, recently orphaned, drops out of veterinary school and jumps onto a passing train. He enters a world of freaks, drifters, and misfits, a second-rate circus struggling to survive during the Great Depression, making one-night stands in town after endless town.
Jacob is put in charge of caring for the circus animals. He there meets the beautiful young star of the equestrian act, Marlena.
