Circus HumbertoSeason 1
Czech series about the life and work of acrobats, tamers, clowns, and other employees of Circus Humberto, spanning the period from the first half of the 19th century until the time of the first independent Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1939), based on the famous novel by Eduard Bass that played such a vital role in anti-fascist resistance, as Bass saw beyond the horizon of the time of war and Nazi occupation, to the future without fascists, racial theories, and one nation holding others in contempt. The series tells the life stories of six generations of the famous Humberto family--touching biographies of people for whom the circus ring became fatal.
