Castellan Oliva watches the everyday life of his small sweet town from the gallery of a tower. From that height, he can afford to keep a tolerant view of the weaknesses and frailties of his fellow-citizen. Robert, a young teacher, is preparing to marry his colleague Julie. Robert invites Oliva to sit as a model in a drawing lesson. The old man tells the children about his life as a sailor and about his first encounter with Diana, the love of his life, and her magical tom-cat. All of a sudden, jolly music sounds from the square, heralding the arrival of a strange circus. To the surprise of both children and adults, there is a magician sitting on the roof of a red car who is almost indiscernible from Oliva, and a beautiful girl named Diana with a tom-cat wearing sunglasses on her lap. At the close of that evening's performance by the magician, Diana takes the sunglasses off her tom-cat and people begin to change colour in front of his green eyes. The unfaithful turn yellow, the liars violet, the thieves and highwaymen grey and those who are in love turn red. Red is also Robert, who forgot about his unfaithful Julie and fell in love with Diana. The tom-cat is seized by three men who are afraid of his magical power - the hypocritical school director, the toady school-servant and the dishonest chef of a restaurant. Robert's pupils, worried about the tom-cat's life, run away from the little town and refuse to return until the animal is saved. The children's pressure has the desired effect. But Robert is very sad - after spending a night full of love with Diana, the car with the girl, the tom-cat and the magician leaves. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)
