A long, long time ago, Leda makes love to a swan. 
3,000 years later, Michelangelo paints a picture. 
350 years later, Rudolph impulsively buys it.
128 years later, Dave and Fiona stand in a museum, gazing at what is left.

Set in a world of bizarre romantic obsessions and everyday ineptitude, 99 Ways to Fuck a Swan explores the dark corners of desire, and the eternal mysteries of love.
