"A First of May is someone in his first season with a circus. Eleven-year-old Cory (Byrd) is a foster child nobody wants. Carlotta (Harris) is an elderly woman the world has forgotten. Together, they find friendship and family when they join a traveling circus, and show what an old has-been and a First of May can do. Winner of the Best of Fest award at the Chicago International Children's Film Festival, The First of May is that rare family film that will touch viewers of all ages." - Baker & Taylor
