Plot
A young girl named Andres falls ill, but really wants to go to a circus. Her father decides to invite circus performers home so that they can make his daughter feel better. The man is a widower and is planning to marry Carla. Andrea doesn't want him to marry her as she knows that the woman is only interested in his money. The girl runs away from home in protest and her father decides not marry. However, she gets kidnapped by Carla's brother who demands a ransom. Three clowns, Gaby, Fofó and Miliki, decide to rescue the girl.
