In the 1840s, a small-town youth, Chad, leaves home to take up with a traveling circus and soon falls for Lady Lillian, a daredevil horse rider. Unfortunately, she refuses to have anything to do with the unsophisticated young man, and her fellow performs follow suit. Chad then meets Caroline, a runaway teen, and they form an intimate bond. Later, when the circus faces money troubles, Chad comes up with a brilliant way to prove his worth.
