Plot

Born in a circus, Bux (Nils Asther) hankers after life there, but is pressurised by his family to study to become a surgeon. However, the lure of the Big Top proves too strong, and he abandons his medical career for a life as a circus clown. His clinical expertise comes in handy when attending the injuries of a young woman knocked down by an elephant, and romance beckons.
