Inhaltsangabe

The story takes place in two worlds: the real and the surreal.Set in Boston and New York City, the story follows the life of a young man who does not learn and grow wise from life's experiences. Instead, he grasps at the price of everything, oblivious to their spiritual value, including love and friendship.On a job search in New York City, he rests on a bench in Central Park, where a scene is played out that portends the future. A clown comes down a path with puppet clowns in a red canvas bag. When balloons, carried by the clown, burst near a little girl, a puppet clown jumps out of the bag and does a dance with the girl. Clowns are to have an important role in the young man's future, as well as a person with a bow tie who constantly stalks him. Another important image is that of the dancing couple in the Renoir painting Bal a Bougival, which exemplifies the magical essence and beauty of real love.
