Synopsis
(United States, 2014) Dir.: Genevieve Erin O’Brien
Kylan, a young, mixed-race girl, loves unicorns. Kylan goes to the carnival, which claims to have a real live unicorn. At the heart, FOR THE LOVE OF UNICORNS foregrounds community and utopia — a utopia for queer, mixed race, Asian American, people of color, gender non-conforming people. Kylan represents the hope that when we speak out and organize, one day we can live in a utopian world where even though everyone’s unicorn may look different, they can all dance together under a glittery rainbow.
Digital, 5 min., color, narrative
