Smilla is a young circus kid. She desperately wants to perform in the arena and decided to go for a fine and very elegantly choreographed act with a dancing bear. But since there is no bear at hand Smilla tries to catch one in the mountains nearby. She sets up a trap, puts cotton candy in to allure the bear and falls asleep. When she wakes up she caught herself a giant troll keen to get more of that delicious candy. To Smilla’s mind a dancing troll is even better and will be for sure the main attraction of the circus. But when the animal trainer learns that the crazy girl had caught herself a troll, Smilla has to decide what prize she is willing to pay for fame and success.

The short film was aired as part of the children's show Siebenstein on ZDF.
