Carny

This behind-the-scenes look at the life of carnies features Jodie Foster as a runaway teen who joins the carnival looking for some adventure in her boring life. She first gets involved with the dunking machine taunter, Frankie (Gary Busy), and then with his friend and carny cornerstone, Patch (Robbie Robertson), which causes frustration between the trio of involved parties. Director Robert Kaylor began a documentary of the carnie lifestyle but later decided to make this fictional yet realistic feature.
