She lives with her father Renato, an old and sick clown, and they share a complex relationship as she is his daughter but also the mother of his child. After Renato's death, Alma is expelled from the circus for refusing to abandon her son.

However, despite undergoing a purification ceremony, Alma is eventually stripped of her faith and innocence.
概要
