Five Men in a CircusMasako Tsutsumi, Ryuko Umezono, Heihachirô Ôkawa, Hiroshi Uruki
Japan. Original title: Saakasu goningumi. Five poor musicians make up the worst traveling brass band in Japan. It finds its way to a quiet community at the same time as a circus. The male performers in the circus are on strike because one of them has asked the circus owner's daughter to marry him, but has been rejected, and the band is asked to fill in for them.
At 47:12, a
foot juggler
is seen manipulating a wooden barrel for 34 seconds.
