В бой против солдат Национальной гвардии он идет, вооруженный мачете и одетый в шутовской наряд.Много лет спустя, во времена диктатора Франко, Хавьер, сын того рыжего клоуна, находит работу Белого (печального) клоуна в цирке, населенном удивительными персонажами. Теперь он дружит с человеком-пушечное ядро и сварливой семейной парой дрессировщиков собак, а на арене становится партнером Рыжего клоуна Серхио.
"Balada triste de trompeta," also known as "The Last Circus," is a 2010 film that masterfully blends elements of dark comedy, drama, and horror to create a unique cinematic experience. Produced by uMedia and Tornasol Films in Belgium and France, the movie is set against the backdrop of Francoist Spain and follows the tragic tale of two clowns entangled in a love triangle with a trapeze artist. Directed by Álex de la Iglesia, the film delves deep into themes of revenge, identity, and the absurdity of war, all while maintaining a visually striking and often grotesque aesthetic. The narrative centers on Javier, a sad clown who falls in love with the beautiful trapeze artist Natalia, only to find himself in competition with Sergio, a violent and jealous clown. As the story unfolds, the film juxtaposes the innocence and joy typically associated with circuses with the brutality and chaos of the Spanish Civil War. This contrast is brilliantly executed through the film's use of vivid imagery and a haunting score, which together create an atmosphere that is both unsettling and captivating. One of the most striking aspects of "Balada triste de trompeta" is its fearless exploration of the darker side of human nature. The characters are complex and deeply flawed, driven by their desires and haunted by their pasts. The film does not shy away from depicting violence and madness, yet it does so with a purpose, using these elements to comment on the destructive nature of obsession and the impact of societal conflict on individual lives. In conclusion, "Balada triste de trompeta" is a bold and unforgettable film that challenges its audience with its unconventional storytelling and provocative themes. It is a testament to the creative vision of Álex de la Iglesia and the collaborative efforts of uMedia and Tornasol Films. For those willing to venture into its dark and twisted world, the movie offers a profound and thought-provoking experience that lingers long after the credits roll.
