Unicorns

Great Britain

Synopsis

"Unicorns" is about Ayesha, an attractive British-South Asian dancer. The only thing is, she is not a woman. In fact, she is Ashiqw, a shy, queer man – still in the closet – with a very convincing "realistic Queen" persona. Ayesha happens to meet Luke, a straight single father, and a unique love develops between them. But can Luke love a woman who, in fact, does not exist?
