Jeff Goldblum plays a post-war Jew that spent time in a German Concentration Camp as the commandant's personal clown. Before the war Adam Stein was a stage clown with an amazing act that made everyone bust at their seams. But when Nazi's came to power, his show was abruptly ended and his family was sent to a concentration camp. While there, a Nazi Commandant, Played by Willem Dafoe, recognized him from seeing his show before and assures his safety if he will perform as his own personal clown. This however leads to many months of brutal torture that Adam is never able to forget. Years later, Adam is sent to a research center to help those who were mentally affected by their time in the German Holocaust. The research center peruses Adam to help a young boy that was abused in many of the same ways that Adam was in the CC. A decent independent film with a great performance from Jeff Goldblum. Not everyone's idea of a war film, but well made nevertheless.
