Barbara is a professional clown, so is her partner Heli, and their two children call them a "clown family". Barbara believes in the philosophy of being a clown: in failure and making fun of things that don't work out; in lightness, even in private; in the ability to turn things around and see the positive in the negative. But it is an unimaginable stroke of fate that really challenges Barbara's attitude to being a clown and to life. (MFG)
