Short summary
A mysterious man under the name Mister Iks performs in the circle, playing violin on a chair suspended in the air by ropes. His breathtakingly sad melodies reflect his internal turmoil - he's in love with a noble lady and this relationship is frowned upon in their society. A beautiful story of friendship, love, and circus, accompanied by the astonishing voices of the actors.
The movie is based on Emmerich Kálmán's operetta "Die Zirkusprinzessin". The compositor dedicated his work to Agnes Eszterhazy, a famous Hungarian actress. To write it, he spent 8 months, working 16 hours every single day.
The original score of Mister X aria (intended for a tenor) was lowered by one tone because George Ots is a baritone.
