An amazing discovery yesterday. As I was searching for a title, like a mother-to-be searches for a name for her baby, I discovered the source of my fascination with the poor, itinerant circus.

I saw a reference to La Strada by Fellini and I instantly recognized the deep connection to it. It has always been my favorite film but it touched a point within me so deeply that I have always been drawn to the moving spectacle. And, that is the name I choose.

Moving Spectacles

Los Espectaculos que (con)Mueven

The double entendre of both words, along with the suggestion of “la strada,” being on the road.
