A small group of friends decide to attend a seance at a local art studio. The group starts a discussion about a new painting of a mythical creature, when a Frenchman joins and claims that he sees a unicorn in it. While some of them are very sceptical about the whole thing, others believe in the medium’s abilities.
The voice is that of a person no longer within the living. Shortly after the seance begins, a strange light fills the room and the medium starts speaking in a different voice. A short conversation arises between the group and the spirit that possesses the medium.Why do the friends decide to attend this seance?
