Did you know that a Clown D’or is a thing? I chose to tell this story during my time at Casa Fellini in Italy, where my classmates and I were unexpectedly thrown into a clowning workshop while studying World Cinema at Il Cinema Ritrovato. The class was led by the eccentric Marco—who is not a recipient of the Clown D’Or, but the guy knows someone who knows someone who won it. This film is a tribute to that unforgettable week in July.
