'In the night the trapeze had made me dance and by the dawn I was a woman on the dirty ground gathering frost while Londoners walked by without a glance.'
A circus performer is on the run seeking solace with strangers. Hidden in London's tangled alleys a cellist plays only for her. Above them all an old clown watches from his trapeze waiting for her to dance again.
