The Franco-Italian circus Il Teatro di Pinocchio settles in Mitry-Mory, near Paris. After the assembly of the big top, routine settles in their temporary village, and work jackets are swapped for sparkling costumes. Mickey, the 77-year-old handyman, continues to search for his place, until the next departure. Through the perspectives of its characters, Les Fauves ont disparu immerses the viewer in the hidden world of the circus.
