Trama
Rafael Padilla, nome d'arte Chocolat, nacque a Cuba intorno al 1860. Dal circo al teatro, dall'anonimato alla fama, il film racconta il suo incredibile destino di primo artista nero in Francia a calcare la scena di un teatro e, con il clown Footit, a creare un duo comico di successo tra un artista bianco e uno di colore divenuto poi popolare nella Parigi della Belle Epoque.
