Vor mehr als zwei Jahrzehnten erlernte Enano dank der Lehren des Vaters der lebenden Statuen, des Weltrekordhalters, des Portugiesen António Santos (Staticman), die edle Kunst der Unbeweglichkeit.
Sein Wunsch war es schon immer, eine menschliche Statue zu haben, die die Figur des armen Clowns (Augustus) nachbildet, und so entstand diese Performance im Rahmen des Projekts „Festival der lebenden Statuen zu Ehren der Straßenkunst“.

Synopsis
The clown who wistfully wanders through his memories.
Memories of an ageless, homeless life, but full of travels, multiple characters, laughter and disappointments, loneliness and crowds. Even though he is still, he conveys sweetness, nostalgia, he relates to the public and takes them on his journey, which has some surprises in store.
