Barbara and her partner Heli try to get by as professional clowns, living out their dream of an alternative, joy-filled life with their two children, and laughing at what doesn't work out. But when a tragic car accident takes Heli and the children, Barbara is left alone. In the face of unspeakable loss, her belief in humor, hope, and humanity is put to the ultimate test. Can her way of seeing the world - through both its light and shadow - help her find a way back to life? She bets she'll laugh again.
