"Wind of Life"
Never Originally Aired (CBC, Canada)
Episode 11: "Puppets" (Bravo, USA)
A craftsman is bustling about his charming toy store on a snowy Christmas Eve in Salzbourg.
This imaginative and passionate man has only one ambition: that his small wooden puppet comes to
life. In fact, he acts as if it were already the case. The back room of the shop is set up to
celebrate the marionette's birthday. The puppet even has a birthday hat on his head! Crouched in
a corner of the workshop, Vénus, one of the giants from the show Mystère, is watching the scene
and she decides to assist by blowing solar wind. The toys in the shop receive their share of
the giant's solar spell, but the magic wind also spreads out in unexpected directions. Although
she only intended to give life to the craftsman's wooden son, Vénus gets much more than she
bargained for.

Cirque du Soleil Artists
- The Other Life of Venus from Mystere -- Venus is the female counterpart
to the male, devilish, dark character Mephisto. In Mystère's voyage from the dawn of
time, Mephisto and Venus appear from the depths of the Earth; together they cast a
long dark shadow and expose the sombre, more complex side of the journey of life.
Mephisto and Venus only appear in times of commotion and loud noise; their presence
wreaks havoc in any domain. Together they want to create chaos and destroy the amicable
balance that exists within the world of Mystère. Venus is played by Rosalie Éthier.
