East Germany. 17-year-old Martina has a paralyzing fear of heights, which prevents her from fulfilling her father's wish that they perform a tightrope act together. As she is quite taken with the black panthers in the circus, as well as their trainer Dittrich, she decides to be an animal trainer instead.

At 38:58, a man rides a tall unicycle while balancing a pole on his forehead and juggles 3 clubs and then 5 rings. Next, he is joined by 4 women, 3 also on tall unicycles, and 2 of them hold a long pole between them supported on their shoulders. The man then does a head stand on the center of the pole, and spins a ring on each of his legs. The women then pass clubs in several configurations, and finally the man leads a feed of the 3 women, all on unicycles.

At 59:11, a man juggles 4 plates, seen for 6 seconds.
