Year of the Unicorn

By Carmelo Arnoldin

Year of the Unicorn moves between Canada and France, where Vittorio, a successful artist in his fifties, seeks inspiration in the country's extraordinary art and culture-and release from a paralyzing obsession with the enigmatic Farah, a married woman.

In Paris, Vittorio continues to yearn for Farah as he struggles to accept her idealization of platonic love as a superior emotion and the only kind she will accept between them despite his desire.

At the famous Mus e de Cluny, Vittorio recognizes his own longing in the bedazzled gaze of the unicorn depicted in a series of tapestries entitled The Lady and the Unicorn, and returns to Canada determined to confront his own Lady, to bare his soul and insist she make a decision.
