Circus fantasticus

Summary

Stevo is wandering in the killing fields after the deafening sounds of war calm down. His house is barely standing, his wife had been hit by a grenade and he is left with his daughter Dunja and son Mali. When the worst seems to have passed a roaring noise comes from afar. After moments of intensive waiting Stevo discovers, that instead of killing machines - an unusual vehicle from Circus Fantasticus had stopped in front of his house. The people from the circus are positively bizarre, but entirely humane at the same time.
