THE ESTABLISHING SHOT : CIRCO TRAILER

From first-time director Aaron Schock comes an intimate portrait of a century-old Mexican travelling circus struggling to stay together despite mounting debt, dwindling audiences, and a simmering conflict that threatens this once vibrant family tradition.

Filmed along the backroads of rural Mexico, the stunning visuals of this cinematic road movie, married to a soundtrack by legendary U.S. band Calexico, open the viewer to the luminous world of a traveling circus while examining the universal themes of family bonds, filial responsibility and the weight of cultural inheritance.

Through an intricately woven story of a marriage in trouble and of a century-old family tradition that hangs in the balance, CIRCO asks: To whom and to what should we ultimately owe our allegiances?

Release Date: 12 September, 2011
