Two clowns lighting up a flame from a camping gas tank.

On a summer day like any other in a little campsite, two strange people wander around. A tank and a burner, two cases and a tarp, all you need to turn the day of the other campers upside-down with absurd and comical actions. Between the floor's slope, the forgotten objects, the strange constructions, and the experiments with the Gas, will the two clowns be able to make a warm cup of tea without causing an explosion?

Two clowns passing underneath an unstable construction made with the pieces of a camping burner. One clown mounts on the shoulders of another in front of a large audience. A surprised clown holds another clown wrapped around his waist. Two clowns throw blue crates at each other. A clown holds a gas tank while another one lights a fire from a plastic tube. Audience clapping while a robotic figure is revealed. A clown looks with surprise a lemon stuck in a knife in the audience. A clown covered by a tarp mimes a ostrich while another clown pets it. Two clowns stack a gas tank, crates and the feet of a stove in a precarious balance. A robotic figure shooting fire from its arms and two clowns close to it. Two clowns drink side by side a cup of tea. A clown holds a mug and another clown a tissue on fire. Two clowns sniff the air side by side. A clown in the arms of another. Two clowns looking inside a plastic tube. A clown rubbing his hands.
