After many years of an outwardly stable marriage of convenience to Queen Guinevere, King Arthur is stunned one day when a strange knight, Prince Meleagant of Gorre, storms into his palace and challenges him for Guinevere's hand. After Meleagant seizes the Queen by force and takes her away to his distant castle, Arthur is forced to dispatch a young knight of his realm, Sir Lancelot, to rescue her. But in the ensuing adventure, both Arthur and Guinevere will be forced to confront the lies and evasions in their long relationship with each other.
Drawing upon the medieval legends of Queen Guinevere's kidnapping in such works as Chretien de Troyes' The Knight of the Cart, this tale is a meditation upon desire, betrayal, adultery, and, ultimately, the failure to sustain lasting love and connection.
