KNIFE IN THE WIFE

POLISH TITLE: NÓŻ W WOZIE

Knife in the Wife is an impressionistic documentary showing the life of a provincial circus called ‘Arizona’, which is grotesque on some occasions and sad on others. The showpiece of this troupe of six people is throwing knives. Their glory days are over now, their programme is not of the highest order, yet the magic of circus is still there and their young audiences watch the show with flushed cheeks.
