Storyline
Plot Summary |
There is a war in the world between the men and the women. A young girl tries to escape this reality and comes to a hidden place where a strange unicorn lives with a family: Sister, Brother, many children and an old woman that never leaves her bed but stays in contact with the world through her radio. Since the content of this picture is not as important as the pictures and allegories, the simple plot can not be described further. Written by Benjamin Stello |

Quotes |
Lily:
I don't mean to be rude, but you're not very graceful. In my books, unicorns are slim and white. Unicorn: Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh. The most beautiful things in the world, are the most useless. Peacocks and lilies for instance. See more » |
