CHAPITEAU SHOW is a movie-puzzle, a movie-joke, a movie-labyrinth. Four short stories are titled "Love", "Friendship", "Respect" and "Cooperation". All parts take place in a small resort on the Black Sea, where each chapter brings its characters to face the turning moments of their life. As they go through their personal dramas, a surreal show is taking over the city, bringing all of them together at the center of an epic performance. One character is agonizing over a love affair gone wrong, another struggles with friends who just don’t understand, the third tries to win his father’s respect, and the fourth is battling to find a way to cooperate with his partners. Just as in real life, where everyone sees themselves as the stars of their own show, the characters are the heroes of their tales but exist as minor characters, barely noticed stuntmen, in the stories of others.
