Circus Kids tells the story of the first partnership and tour between Circus Harmony, a social circus in St. Louis and the Galilee Circus,  a Jewish/Arab youth circus in Israel.   As these young people from a variety of backgrounds focus on what connects them instead of what divides, they create something amazing together. The film follows them across Israel as they promote peace through pyramids, joy through juggling, and harmony through handsprings!
