The official website of the anime describes the series as (machine translated):
In the 1950s, during Japan's period of rapid economic boom, Mizuka Tsurumaki, whose father's remittances had stopped, collapsed from exhaustion on a country road in the middle of summer.
She was rescued by Sakura and Rin of the impoverished, struggling circus troupe, Sunflower Circus. Mizuka, a circus prodigy who hates the circus, tries to leave as quickly as possible, but her eyes fall upon Sakura gracefully soaring through the air— Was this encounter a coincidence or destiny...? The one-of-a-kind circus show, brought to you by girls chasing their dreams, begins!
