Synopsis

Omar is a big, soft-bodied freak with crab claws for arms. Exploited since ever by Mr. Jules, a despotic circus director, Omar has long since resigned himself to his sad fate. But the arrival of Pincette, a tightrope walker mermaid, turns his life upside down, giving rise to new feelings in him. Because Omar loves Pincette and Pincette has a crush on him.
