When a sad, sensitive 6 year old boy watched Charles Walters' 1953 MGM Technicolor masterpiece Lili about a sad, sensitive French waif who joined a Carnival in search of love on television in 1967, his life changed forever. Now 64, he retraces the steps he took in search of his own Carnival to join, only to discover he carried the Carnival inside himself all along.
