Synopsis In a future world, we have lost the technology for video/film/picture or recorded image. It is against their religion to draw or be involved with any activity that would lead to the rediscovery of such technology. Districts are separated by professions. This story takes place in the entertainment district, known as The Circus, or CoShow. Justin, a 17-year-old acrobat for Columbus’ show, has just found out that the ringmaster, Columbus, is going to bring back the ancient technology of cinema/TV/Video and turn the camera on his young acrobats. He finds out that Columbus has been picking orphans from The Public who mirror the majority of the public, to perform for him as acrobats. They all have tan skin and curly hair. Justin finds out that Columbus will use the images of his acrobats to control the minds of The Public. The Public will see images that reflect their own, recreating a racial hierarchy, social normalities controlled by consumerism, and a marginalization of lighter skinned, and darker skinned people. Justin’s concern is for Lynda, the lion tamer. She’s a beautiful dark skinned woman who is asked to wear lighter foundation for her performances. Justin finds out that Columbus will introduce Lynda to skin bleaching cream soon, so Justin decides to act now to save her.
