It Might Just Work!
A story inspired by real life—one day in the life of a modern teenager, from the moment their eyes open to the second they close.
This audiovisual adventure blends elements of theatre, documentary film, and contemporary circus to tell a tale of the thoughts, joys, struggles, and shared moments that define the daily rhythm of the students at the Riga Circus School.
It all begins in silence.
Eyes open. Minds switch on.
Will everything fall into place today?
A school bell rings. Balls bounce. Someone’s playing tag.
Trapezes sway in the air, jugglers trace invisible lines.
Some battle social pressure, others wrestle with time—or the lack of sleep.
Even gravity occasionally gives in.
Acrobats climb into human pyramids.
Unicycles weave through them, searching for balance.
Silks ripple above. Scenes of daily life shift below.
And somehow—
It becomes life. It becomes togetherness. It becomes joy.
In the end, we move as one.
One day. One breath.
It might just work!
